Done. Installed and booting.
Bye.
Seriously. Install ME, the NT. Ensure NT uses FAT, not NTFS. NT will
now display a menu at boot.
Install linux. Ensure that Lilo installs on partition, not MBR. Then, if
your partition is /dev/hda4, mount the NT partition as /mnt, and
dd if=/dev/hda4 of=/mnt/bootsect.lnx count=1 bs=512
Do this each time you rerun lilo in Linux
In NT, look at c:\boot.ini, and add the approriate line. I am not quoting
the line to add, as a hurdle you MUST cross. It is trivial, but I want to
ensure that you read this mail as a part of the "bigger picture", and not
blindly implement it.
Give a man a fish, and he says "Yech!!". Teach him to fish, and he spends
$500 on sporting equipment. Either way, he goes hungary.
