problem dual booting with a 200 ntfs partition

I'm trying to dual boot linux with a 200 gig ntfs partition and i'm
having some problems. Lilo says it cant see the ntfs partition and
wont boot it (Fatal Partition entry not found). My linux drive is
40 gig and set to primary master, my windows drive is 200 gig ntfs set
to secondary master.

Heres a copy of my lilo.conf:

boot=/dev/hde
map=/boot/map
default=linux
keytable=/boot/us.klt
prompt
nowarn
timeout=100
message=/boot/message
menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw
disk=/dev/hde bios=0x80
disk=/dev/hdg bios=0x81
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux

initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi quiet"
vga=788
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux-nonfb
root=/dev/hde1
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi"
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=failsafe
root=/dev/hde1
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="devfs=nomount hdd=ide-scsi failsafe"
read-only other=/dev/fd0

unsafe

other=/dev/hde
label=XP
table=/dev/hdg
map-drive=0x80
to=0x81
map-drive=0x81
to=0x80


Heres some dmesg info about my drives, in case i just have the mapping
wrong:

Ok, this is merely a guess, but shouldn't that be /dev/hdg ?

disk=/dev/hde bios=0x80 is my linux drive and the other is my windows
drive.
I messed with the mapping for like an hour, i'm not completely sure
thats the problem but i'll take your advice anyway and give it a try
