No, that's apparentally standard config. It was installed straight into a   
linux partition.

Tried all these and she no work with LILO.....however I did solve the   
problem by installing the OS/2 Boot Manager program.  I had worked on trying   
to install it with LILO for pretty close to three days on and off....with   
Boot Manager installed, I was able to do a re-install of both Win95 and   
linux in about an hour or so. :-) 
 
Thanks for your input....much appreciated. :-)
