  Well, now it works, many thanks to all those who replied. Actually it
is
very simple when you know how to do it (and I was doing something so
stupid
I'm ashamed to talk about it :-) ).

  All I  have to do is set my boot disk ID to 1 in the SCSI contoller
utility
and the disk options in lilo.conf. I was a bit confused because I have
three
or four kernel images. Now I have to re-install NT which apparently I
have
scratched.

  Thanks again to everyone,

  Mamoun
