1) Is Linux now capable of reliably reading *and* writing NTFS partitions? I
want
   to switch my WinXP from FAT32 to NTFS while being able to access it from
   Linux in case evil comes around yet again.

Yes, but writing is 'dangerous'

3) I have LILO currently on the MBR. How do I
        - Fix the MBR so that it becomes "virgin" (without LILO). FDISK
/MBR didn't do it

#>lilo -u

        - I read that it is NOT advisable to install GRUB on the MBR, is
that right?

Not correct as far as I know.

- Anybody has a "Grub for dummies" guide to installing GRUB on a
Linux
root partition (not on MBR) ? I really don't want to screw up my
system
again so I need a proven procedure. My root is /dev/hda8 my
/boot in /dev/hda5
