Hi
	Instead of using LILO or Loadlin U can use NT loader as Boot Manager for 
both Linux and NT

Follow Steps to add your Linux Partition in NT Loader

1. Boot from Linux and run command
dd if=<your linux Partition> of=bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1
* your Linux Partition may be one of these /dev/hda1,dev/hda2,....etc
or /dev/hdb1,.....

2. copy bootsect.lnx file to your c:\ directory which is root of dos/NT 
Partition

3. add Given entry in BOOT.INI
	C:\bootsect.lnx " Way To Linux"
and save BOOT.INI

	Next time u boot System U get one more option in your NT loader Menu
	"way To Linux"
Selecting This option Boot from  Linux.


U can also use bootpart Utility for this.
