I, too, am running a dual boot Win ME and Linux Red Hat 7.0 with 3 hard
drives and 8 partitions. The basic trick is to install lilo in the mbr
(master boot record), then when you boot up you'll get a redhat option
window where you select either dos or linux. If you don't select anything,
it'll boot to your default mode which is selected when installing lilo.
