Good Luck

On the first drive.......that way lilo doesn't touch windows and there's nothing to fix later (except a deletion of the stanza for windows in the /etc/lilo.conf file - 10 seconds). I prefer this way, as something will always boot.
BTW, I just did it again. Right now, I have Mandrake 10 on one drive (the primary) and Windows 98 on the second drive. Both boot. I can access the Windows partition from Linux as well. What took the longest was waiting for the reboots and the drivers to install for all this equipment that came out just after the OS (:mad: ). you may wonder why I chose win98. It wasn't because I want windows. I have XP Pro as well. I have some old racing games That I like so Win98 takes up 1/4 of the space as XP :D |
