After going through the 'NT OS Loader + Linux mini-HOWTO,' I managed to dual boot Linux and NT, but only using a boot floppy for Linux. Although I am pleased that this time I installed Debian it didn't lock me out of NT, I still want to dual-boot from my hard drive as promised by the HOWTO.
I have copied the bootsector using dd if-/dev/hda6 of=bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1 and put it onto my c: drive, and put the line C:\BOOTSECT.LNX="Linux" into the end of my Boot.ini file, but on booting and selecting Linux from the NT Dual Boot screen, I get "NTDETECT 4.00 ERROR: NT CANNOT FIND THE FILE /WINNT/SYSTEM32/NTOSKRNL.EXE PLEASE INSTALL THIS FILE AND TRY AGAIN" and I have to reboot. I tried copying the bootsector of my boot floppy, but the same happened again. NT is looking for another installation of NT, when it should just load Linux.
