    Currently running a dual boot system win98 and sid (lilo is my boot manager).
    I have to update my little used windows partition to windows 2000 for a
    particular program but I am afraid this will cause problems with lilo by
    over-writing something. What's the best way of doing this safely and not
    losing my sid partition?

    Thanks in advance,
    R.J.P.
