I have just tried the whole thing again
My partitions are as such
hda1 = Win95 Fat32
hdb1 = Win95 Fat32
hdb2 = Linux native
hdb3 = Linux swap
The install asks me "Where do you want to install bootloader?"
I am given the following options.
/dev/hda
/dev/hdb2
I first try choosing hda, I then get asked "The boot manager can also
boot other systems"
/dev/hda1/ Unknown
/dev/hdb1/ Win95 Fat32 Dos
For some reason it is not recognising my master drive even though
it works & boots up fine.
I have tried changing the unknow to dos & just leaving it. Either way
I get a error message. "An error occured in the step install boot loader"
Not sure why, but would the simple solution be to simply have a boot
disk? If so, how do I make it? I will most probably be booting to Win95
9 out of 10 times (yeah shoot me <BG> )
