Try to install Windows NT first. If you want to use NTFS for your Windows
NT-partition, keep in mind, that the todays production version of Linux
cannot access NTFS partitions.
An alpha driver that can read NTFS-Partitions is available at
http://www.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~loewis/ntfs.
You may create a separate FAT-Partition for data exchange
or you have to use DOS-formatted floppies.

Another Mini-howto recommends not to use NTs "Disk Administartor" to create the Linux swap- and root-partitions. It is sufficient to see the free space there. I also recommend to use linux's fdisk later.
Now boot linux from diskettes, create the swap and root-partition. Fdisk assumes the ntfs-partition to be a HPFS-partition. This is normal. Boot again from diskettes and install Linux as you like. .:: writeablog.net ::.
Just in case the installation procedure suggests that you could mount the HPFS partition which it has found: Ignore it.
When you come to the Lilo-Section, specify your Linux-root-partition
as your boot device because the Master Boot Record (MBR) of your
harddisk is owned by Windows NT. This means that the root-entry and
the boot-entry in your /etc/lilo.conf have the same value.
If you have a IDE-harddisk and your Linux-partition is the second
partition, your boot-entry in [Research Paper: Distributed computing] .:: ekcochat.com ::. /etc/lilo.conf looks like:
boot=/dev/hda2
If you have two disks and your Linux resides on the first partition
of your second disk, your boot-entry in /etc/lilo.conf looks like:
boot=/dev/hdb1
Run lilo with a kernel that matches your system. Check the kernel by booting from diskette first if you are not sure. .:: podcasts.apple.com ::. .:: bcraweb.bcra.gob.ar ::. [Developer Guide: Z shell]
If you cannot boot Windows NT now, you have a problem. I hope you have created a repair-disk recently.
