I am currently using RH 7.2, its an ok distro, I don't really have much experience with anything else.
The problem is that I have a WD hard drive, which uses this EZ-BIOS thing or what ever its called, and I know that its a pain in the ass to get around this for dual booting. I was hoping some one knew how to get this setup (I'm not reinstalling Linux) or knew of a web site that could walk me through the process.

Thanks

well what probelm are you having? just install the bootloader thing and then install lilo. you'll get the ezbios init screen popping up, then lilo will start.

The problem with EZ-BIOS is that it it prevents LILO from starting some how. I have heard GRUB .90 is designed to work with EZ-BIOS but I'm so new at this stuff that I don't even know how to intall the tools I need to install GRUB...I keep getting this message about setting the CC environment variable, because gcc failed to run.

But how do you get gcc, how do you install it, etc.

I'm booting from a disk right now, thats fine but its a pain when I make changes as I am just trying to get linux to work properly right now...I still have to look at getting the drives to work faster. I also have to find out why Tux racer and other games work at like 0.2 fps.

If you have any info on any of these things please just say so, and then I can add some more detail.

Thanks

gcc and grub are in the 'rpms' folder on the RedHat install CDs.

You can either try to use the Package Manager to install them (I've never had much joy so far) or use the shell prompt and use
rpm -i <rpm_file_name>
eg.
rpm -i gcc-3.0.1-3.i386.rpm

If the package relies on something else being installed it will let you know - just use the same command to install the relevant rpm then try again.

I'm using a WinME/Win2000Pro/RH7.2 multi-boot setup using the Win2000 bootloader.

You need to create a Lilo bootstrap file to place on the C: drive under Windows then edit the Windows boot.ini file to see it.

Details elsewhere on this site I believe.
