1) I have to install windows on my computer and I don't want to change more than is really needed to do so (especially concerning my disk organisation). But the problem is that windows want to be installed only on the first partition of the first disk which I don't want to give away. Here comes the grub part -- the manual says it can hide partitions and virtually swap disks. Is this of any use here? I understand how this can help once windows are already installed -- but how to install them on the second partition? Can grub boot from a cd? Of course, I can change my scheme with parted, no problem; but do I really have to?
2) On a computer with potato, I get the following error when trying to do an upgrade -- "could not configure a pre-depend" or similar. (I got the three isos from the address posted here not long ago.) However, if I try to install it from scratch, every now and then the message "neighbour table overflow" appears on the screen, otherwise it runs ok. Any ideas? On my computer woody runs perfectly and smoothly and it was an install from potato (base only) and then at once pointing the program to a debian's ftp-mirror. Thanks, Andrej
