Re: Dual boot with win 98?

[Art Ross <aross donet com>]

Brian,
  I have Windows 98 and Linux on one HD and this was possible
with the guidance I received from the following link:
      
http://www.troubleshooters.com/tpromag/9811.htm
This document really puts the dual boot in a great perspective. 
Of course, I wouldn't follow the partitioning scheme for Linux but as for
the structure of the Win 98 partition, the boot sector and Linux it works
well.
  Hope this works for you.

Hello,

Anyone dual booting w/ win98? same deal as with win95?

i'm going to be experimenting later tonight on a friend's computer,and i'm
hoping it will go well...

it's almost definitely FAT32, and i'm guessing that the boot images are
going to be past 1024. i'm hoping that linear is my friend, and if not, a
boot disk definitely will be.

i'm hoping to get this working to show someone that he can do everything
in linux that he does in windows, without the $$$ of commercial apps.
mostly he'll be web browsing / reading email, and doing some graphics
(gimp) and word processing (staroffice)

so, we shall see what happens.

if anyone sees this within the next hour and has any advice, that would be
great.
