[plug] NT and Linux coexisting

[Christian]

Hi all,

I'm looking for advice and experiences from people who have NT and Linux
coexisting on the same system.  I'm thinking about installing NT Server
on one partition on my primary slave disk but my questions are:

a) what type should I make the partition I'm going to put it on?

b) will NT damage other partitions on the same disk? (none of them are
"root" partitions except for an OpenBSD partition which I can easily
reinstall.)

c) will NT touch other partitions on other disks? (except for the MBR
which I can relilo) If there's any risk of it damaging my main Linux
partition then I might wait until after uni is finished...

d) how do you tell the NT install which partition to put itself on? 
Being an MS product I'm worried it might just pick a partition it thinks
is best and blow something important away.

I'm also planning to use LILO to boot NT - has anyone had any problems
with this?  Someone said to me that they thought you couldn't boot NT
using LILO if you were using NTFS - anyone know anything about this?

Thanks in advance,

Christian.
