RE: How can I veiw the partition tables?
You need adrian15's Super Grub Disk! It automatically finds your operating systems and can boot into any of them, install GRUB, or set any to boot automatically etc. It's menu based too, very easy to use, great for when Windows decides to eat your GNU partitions.

EDIT: sorry, I misunderstood what you meant. Linux needs to be booted with a decent bootloader, as it isn't chainloaded. You can build a chainloaded kernel, or set up grub or lilo on your Linux partition and have boot.ini boot that instead.

EDIT AGAIN: Why no grub, by the way? It's pretty advanced, any problem you have with it can be fixed very easily..

was put impeccably into words at DebianDay for me last Saturday, by Knut Yrvin of Trolltech - adults try something once, fail, and then are like "ffs this doesn't work". Children try, fail, and then try again, and succeed - maybe on the second, or even fifth retry. But the thing is that they keep at it and overcome the problems in the end.
