dual booting with 98?

Has anyone dualbooted linux with win98?

I have been able dualboot (infact tripleboot) with 98 and 2k.
I had to install 2k because that was the only way I could get an NT loader.

i'd guess that about 95% of ppl here have dual booted with win98 at times, i've odne it loads, with various systems, akways with lilo, always worked perfectly

On one of my linux boxes, i use lilo to load both 98 and redhat/suse/caldera.

(Sorry, I forgot to mention in my first post that I am trying to use only NT loader and not LILO.)
On the other box, I am trying to get the NT loader to load both 98 and linux. Infact, I have succeded in being able to load RH from NT loader. But then in order to use NT loader, I had to install either NT or 2k on top of 98. I am curious to know if anyone has 'bypassed' NT/2k installation to just install NT loader.

Thx
