this is a strange idea, what do you think..

I just had a thought (run! run for the hills!) ... would it not be nice if
you had a little bitty daemon that runs under *windows* that you could
telnet to and give a command like "reboot linux" and it would modify the
lilo configuration on the mbr such that it would reboot the system into
linux, in case you had a dual boot system and had left it booted into
windows, but you want it to boot into linux so you can use it remotely?
