Howdy all,

I've got a "tri-boot" box - linux, win95 and freebsd... I would like to
install win98 and eventually erase win95. I have 2 hard drives
configured as follows:

master:
/dev/hda1       win95
/dev/hda2       freebsd
/dev/hda3       debian root
/dev/hda4       debian swap

slave:
/dev/hdb1       extra ext2      primary
/dev/hdb2       another ext2    primary
/dev/hdb3       vfat            primary
/dev/hdb5       vfat            logical
/dev/hdb6       vfat            logical
/dev/hdb7       ext2    (/usr)  logical
/dev/hdb8       vfat            logical
/dev/hdb9       vfat            logical
/dev/hdb10      vfat            logical

What I want to do is change /dev/hdb1 to vfat, unplug my master,
configure my slave as master temporarily, install Win98 on /dev/hdb1,
then reassign original master / slave, put Win98 in Lilo and have a
"quad boot" box for awhile whilst I get stuff tranferred from win95 to
win98... my question is, will win98 allow itself to be installed on a
partition of my choosing, or will it just erase everything and install
itself wherever it wants?

Thanks in advance,

Rich
