Hi I really don't think you'll need windoze on hda1, well...I know you don't.
I have done several tests and there is just the same where you put windoze, if the partition is first, middle or last. If it's primary or secondary doesn't matter either. But you are right in a way, it's most common to have windoze on hda1, but not nessesarry:) /ernst On Thu, 26 Sep 2002, Tom Massey wrote: > * Anand Parikh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [2002-09-26 22:49]: > > Next I set up the Linux HD as A (active) and Win98 HD as B (standby). > > I can boot up with Linux, but with Win98 the system just hangs, no error > > messages.
