Good question, I am planning on doing something similar. I know Lilo works easily with Win98 (at least that is what everyone tells me). I could not get Redhat to install peacefully with my Win NT partition though, ended up I had to reformat and reinstall NT. I am a linux noobie though that may be the problem http://www.sysopt.com/forum/wink.gif

Nevermind, I see I have to use the windows 2000 bootloader, Just was hoping mandrake 8 maybe changed it so you could use the Graphical lilo for win2k but I guess not.. I just wanted to use it for looks anyway http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

You only need to use the W2K bootloader if you are using NTFS. If you use FAT32, LILO can boot it.
