LiLo boot+ EZ bios
 
ok my Question is.. i have windows on a 30gb partition and linux on a nother HD thats 1.2gb (untill i learn it better)

I know that people have used lilo with EZ-BIOS, even though the official word is that it won't work. If you choose to install lilo on the boot partition as opposed to the Master Boot Record (MBR), it shouldn't touch the first drive at all.

alright Thank you :0)

lilo and exbios can definitely cohabit fine, i have that at the moment.

you might like to konw that linux doesn't need ezbios no matter what size drive you're using, as the kernel deals with things at a much lower level than windows ever could
