Re: Redhat 7.2 and WinXP Partitioning

[Curtis Maurand <curtis maurand com>]

you need to enable LBA support, but DOS doesn't do big drives.  DOS also 
needs to be in the first 540MB and a primary partition.  After that, the 
rest of the drive can be extended partions.  Install DOS first, then XP, 
then Linux.  When all is said and done, the Linux boot loader (lilo in 
your case) will boot all three of the OS's.
