suse 8.2-dual boot-very easy


hi

i just installed windows 98se and suse 8.2 on my soyo kt333 ultra plat platform, i cannot believe how easy it was . the procedure-

1. partitioned hard drive into one active partition-c
2. created a extended partition-d
3.formatted drive c , fat 32
4.intalled wind 98 on drive c
5.rebooted with suse 8.2 cdrom, installed it on drive d, installed grub as boot loader
6. rebooted and expect a horror story, but was very suprised

during the boot, suse will begin, it will ask to how to boot, i select hard drive, then the next screen will say windows or linux. bingo, no more floppy to boot, just select were you want to boot then go into the operating system you select.

one big plus for suse 8.2- a real winner
