    Almost there with Linux


    Hello,

    Can anybody tell me if Linux OS's made by RedHat, Mandrake, or other companies
    come with a dual boot type feature. I would like to be able to have two
    operating systems, a Windows OS and a Linux OS because I have heard that
    your internet connections my have problems otherwise.

    Thanks,

    std::vector<>

    Re: Almost there with Linux

    When u install linux, it shows the existing partitions in the disk and asks which
    one u would like to use... or something like that. If u have c&d drive in windows,

    chose one drive for linux and divide it into various partitions as described by
    the
    installation program.

    After completion of installation, during reboot u get lilo: prompt. if u type
    dos, it will go to windows and if u typr linux or don't type anything, it will
    go to linux. (this can be changed though).

    I think this is what u wanted
