If you can reinstall let nt go to dev/hda1 and let boot loader install itself to the mbr. install linux into an extended partition and install the lilo to the primary linux partition, this was OS Loader is the default boot loader. now follow the instructions in the NT Loader + Linux Mini Howto. I dont know of any system whre lilo boots NT, every tiem I tried to get lilo to boot NT it faailed but the NT OS loader has no problem loading linux. let the nt beast have it's peace and you'll be much happier.
