Hey,
I've never done this before so any info you can give me is greatly =
appreciated.
I want to dual-boot my computer with W2K and Mandrake 9.0
As I understand it, the easiest way is to install W2K first and then =
Mandrake......
What I am not clear on is how do I partition my drive to allow for this.
I am using a 20gig harddrive. I would like to use 5 gig for my W2K C: =
drive and 5 gig for data......then I would like to use the other 10 gig =
for Mandrake.
So do I only partition out the first two 5 gig partitions for windows =
and then let Linux take it from there on its own to find the other 10 =
gigs or what?
In the past I have simply set up the OS's on separate harddrives but I =
wanted to try this.
Thanks in advance,
Cleve
