Hi, Hopefully my hard-drive will be here tomorrow or thursday at the latest so I thought id ask about certain things.

What would I need to do to get my wireless drivers working with linux. I have a Dlink Airplus G510C PCI wireless card.

Would I be able to see my Windows documents (on a seperate harddrive) i linux??

How would I get a dual boot setup to run linux as a primary OS and Windows as a backup??

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Chris

According to http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_p...andname=D-Link drivers for your card are readily available.

Yes, Linux will definitely read your Windows files.

The best way to install is (assuming you have one new hard drive, and no other hard drives):
first install Windows, using Windows CD to make a partition for windows, and another partition.
Second install Linux, telling it to use the other partition (it will probably want to make more partitions from the original, depending on which distribution you will be using). If you use one of the main Linux distributions it will install a boot loader which will load Linux by default, but give you the option to boot Windows when needed.

Thanks, but that link doesnt work :sad:

It works for me, but if it doesn't work for you go to http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ and choose D-Link in the choose manufacturer box.
