Seems like a problem with Winblows XP installer. I don't see any relevant of this in Linux maling-list. Why don't you try to ask this in WinXP mailing-list (if such exists)? I refuse to help anyone install Winblows. That's like showing someone how to shoot him/herself. <rant> I am confused. People having problem with installing Winblows ask question in this list *just because* the machine has Linux in it before. Try asking question on how to install dual boot Win+Linux on a machine that only has Winblows before in a Win mailing-list or even MickeySoft tech support...and see what kind of answer you get.... </rant> RDB -- Reuben D.
