I had my computer running linux only for a while, then I formatted
and installed only win2k.
Soon after, I partitioned my computer into hda1, hda5, and hda6.
Hda1 is Win2k
Hda5 and 6 are linux.

Now I can't boot into windows. Is there any way to do so?
I would appreciate any help!
My lilo.conf file is:

boot="/dev/hda"
map=boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout="50"
message=/boot/message
linear
default=linux

image="/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2"
label="linux"
read-only
root="/dev/hda6"


------------------------------------
Thanks,

Nick

In addition, running fdisk -l gives me:

Device Boot | Start | End | Blocks | Id | System
/dev/hda1 | * | 1286 | 2432 | 9213246 | 7 | HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2 | _ | 2 | 1285 | 10313730 | f | Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5 | _ | 2 | 263 | 2104483+ | 82 | Linux swap
/dev/hda6 | _ | 264 | 1285 | 820918+ | 83 | Linux

ps. and this to your /etc/fstab,

/dev/hda1 /mnt/2000 ntfs ro,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850 0 0

But i would make sure that your kernel supports ntfs, it wasn't really good it the past and it does handle your filesystem so be extra careful
