re [lug] Cannot dual-boot Linux + Winblows 95

[Eric Hillmuth]

I've run into something like that dual booting with
NT. I found I had LILO looking at the wrong partition
for  windows; sda3 vs sda4 or something like that.
Take a look at the LILO config file to make sure LILO
is looking in the right place for your DOS partition.
