Gang,
A 40G drive that I thought was bad (when trying to install W2K
on the drive) may be entirely good. I am trying to avoid having
to buy a DOS/Win platform. I've had both W2K and FBSD or Ubuntu
on this one machine. For various reasons I need one DOS machine.
(Already have 7 or 8 *Nix servers.) The Windows 2000
"Professional" CD find some other non-Windows partition and
press "D" and "L" as I will, the installation CD keeps
complaining. Eventually I have to hit F3 to quit. So, nutshell,
is there any way I can completely remove any trace of *Nix?
-----I remember having a DOS floppy and typing an undocumented
MBR \ command that wiped the drive clean of this boot record,
but this was [mumble] years ago.
thanks for any tips, y'all,
gary
