installing more than 1 linux distro! IS IT POSSIBLE


HI ALL

I HAVE P3 1GHZ/40GB/512MB-10GB FREE SPACE

I use WIN2KPRO & RH9.0 in dual boot mode -> GRUB boot loader.

Is it POSSIBLE to install mandrake 9.x on that free space.
(SO THAT I CAN EITHER BOOT TO WIN2K or RH 9 or MAN'KE 9.x)

ANY IDEAS !

THANX
NAVEEN

Yes. Very much so. Just install MDK. You have two options:

1) Install the bootloader provided by MDK. You'll need to configure it so it has an option to boot Win2k (may already exist) and RH9. MDK should already been configured.

2) Skip the MDK bootloader install. Once MDK is installed, boot into RH9 and reconfigure grub so it has an option to boot MDK.
