lilo and dosemu



It is my understanding that you cannot use dosemu to access partitions
which use the lilo boot system.  This seems to indicate that the boot
partition, normally dev/hda1, cannot be DOS on a dual boot system if you
intend to use dosemu from linux.  Two solutions are suggested by this. One
repartion the harddrive so that /dev/hda1 is Linux and not DOS.  Two
change the booting processs, perhaps by some adjustment to the MBR, so
that the machine does not boot from /dev/hda1 but from some other non DOS
partition
Since I would prefer not to reinstall everything on both linux and dos the
second solution is preferable.  Is it possible?  How do I do it?  Or am I
misunderstanding something?  Thanks for any help

Tom
