If you are using Boot Manager to choose between OS's it is almost certain you have lilo installed in the linux partition MBR 'cos Boot manager wouldn't other wise work. Sad that you have to get rid of OS/2 though to install an inferior system. I digress - when you install win95 it will tell you that it has detected Boot Manager and other operating systems and that they won't work with win95. Ignore this and carry on with the installation. Win95 will load as the default system when you eventually reboot. When you have enough of the dross reboot with you OS/2 Boot/utilities disks (you have made a set haven't you :) ) and set boot manager as the active partition. You will then be back in the state similar to the one you are now in, minus OS/2 - but able to choose between Linux and that other sad os. -- Using OS/2 Warp 4 FP6, Injoy and MR/2 ICE ----------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Lewis) Dorset Rough Riders Mountain Bike Club's head honcho. http://www.dorset-rough-riders.mcmail.com My software never has bugs.
