RE: Linux/WinNT dual booting (an idea...)

My experience is: install NT first, then install Linux, run LILO to modify MBR (add a dos option as usual). After reboot, I got LILO prompt first.

RE: Linux system Instalation - CRC Error

I would recommend using loadlin to boot directly from harddisk in this case. All you need to have is a small DOS partition which you can repartition later. But keep a DOS partition is not a bad idea in case anything goes wrong. Just my 2 cents. Dennis > -Original Message- > From: Jieyao
