# indicates ur prompt
there u have to type in

dd if=<root partition> of=<destination> bs=512 count=1

"if" should be ur source adn ur root partition
eg /dev/hda1

"of" should be the destination and a FAT32 partition along with file name
eg. /fat32 partition folder/bootsect.lnx

now boot into windows
copy bootsect.lnx from fat32 partition to ur c:\ which has the boot.ini file
now open and edit boot.ini

include the line
C:\bootsect.lnx="Red Hat Linux 9.0(Shrike)"
or whatever you want

now the question is are u using lilo or grub as the boot loader ?
anyways u have to unload it from your mbr

so instead of typig it out i found u a link

moving to open source section
