Yes, you could still use Lilo for that. Did you install NT to a separate primary partition, or did you install it so that you can now choose DOS or NT from the NT boot menu? If the latter, that means both DOS and NT actually boot from /dev/hda1, so you can just keep the same /etc/lilo.conf and, of course, install Lilo in /dev/hda. If you used separate primaries for DOS and NT, it's a little more complicated. You would need to modify /etc/lilo.conf so that it sets the primary that you boot from active (DOS or NT). Tom
