Lilo 20 is included with the Redhat 5.2 distribution. You'll know if you've encountered the bug when you get the blue screen of death when trying to boot NT with lilo. To quote from the lilo-21 changes doc. "- first-stage loader code begins with the byte 0xFA (a CLI instruction). This works around the "INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE" blue screen bug of Windows NT 4 (reported by too many people to mention)" lilo-21 can be downloaded from: ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/packages/lilo There is also a rpm version available if you are prepared to hunt around the net for it.
