Re: Re Dual booting with winnt.



You have to enter into Linux using the boot disk or
using loadlin.

Then create a file using the following line

	dd if=/dev/hda11 of=bootsec.lnx bs=512 count=1

Then copy this file to the WinNT partition ( either
by mounting the HDD or thru Floppy drive )

After putting this bootsec.lnx file in C drive of
of WinNT, add the following line to Boot.ini file

c:\bootsec.lnx="Linux"

When u restart, you can boot Linux from NT loader.


Yours sincerely,

R Kannan.
