but when i make linux ext 2 partion and the swap , and load the linux os ,
the lilo does not come up at all...!!
I get an error saying the cannot boot os....

can i have a lilo saying choise of os like linux/win and when i select win i get againa choise of os in this case the win98 and win xp.
as i said i have partion magic v 8,o ,, but when i dual boot my system with win98se and Linux , ( which works perfectly fine ) , but when i click on the partion magic 8.0, to install Win XP , and message says " u have no primary partions left.)

Even tough i had created only one primary partion ( in which my win 98se is there ) , and i have heard that u can creat upto 4 primary partion ina system
