Hi I'm new to the community

And I hate to start out by asking for help, but honestly it's a large part of why I joined. Anyway, this should be a decent challenge for some of you :o)

Pretend you started out with a 30G HD. When you first set it up, you had a 20G Win98 partition, and a 10G Win2k NTFS partition. Later, you decide to install Linux in the same drive, and do it by partitioning off about 10 gig of free space from the end of the Win98 partition. All that went well, no trouble.

Now the hard part. Because I had Win98 and Win2k both on that drive before linux, I had to use Win2k's boot manager to choose between them on boot. When I installed linux, it put lilo in over the win2k boot manager. My question is, how can I install Lilo in such a way as to allow me to choose between Linux or Win2k on boot. I don't care about booting to the Win98 partition, it's mostly just a media drive now anyway.

If it helps, I'm using SuSe 8.0 Personal. Thanks a lot for any help and hopefully I'll be able to help with some of your problems :o)
