Re: Dual boot with win 98?



Hi brian,

I did this,

Here is how my setup was:

2 hard drives
Master for windows
Secondary for Linux

I botted with the rh cd and went into workstation install
i created the swap in hdb(the hd i wanted for linux)
then it restarted and i went into workstation instal again and it worked
fine: lilo defaulted to linux and you just type dos to go to windoze

now i am windoze free :)

good luck
