Another potential option is OS/2's boot manager. I used it to boot between Windows and Linux on a laptop, a couple of years ago...I just installed LILO into the root instead of the boot, and it worked like a charm. On Fri, 13 Oct 2000, John J. Donohue wrote: > On Thu, 12 Oct 2000, Frank Jaco

I think the question needs to focus on what your needs are -- there's no "one size fits all" answer. Both Solaris and Linux have their areas of strength, and if you extend them beyond those areas, you may wish you had another OS running. Likewise, they both have areas of weakness. If the objec
