Is there an issue with using Lilo (or Grub) to dual boot with XP? I've never had any trouble with NT, although I didn't bother to skip the NTLoader, so I had two boot managers running at startup if I chose NT.
My daughter dual boots SuSE 9.2 and WinXP Home with grub just fine. Wifes box used to dual boot SuSE 9.1 and WinXP Home, but she has no need for windurs anymore so the partition was removed. In both these cases WinXP was installed first, with SuSE handling the dual boot setup.
I setup dual boot Gentoo and WinXP Pro for my brother, again grub, no problems. In this case Gentoo was installed first, with WinXP Pro coming in after the install, either way being Gentoo, this was a manual config of grub.
