Sure, Linux will detect DOS if it is installed first. However, since these are old DOS games and probably don't eat up many CPU cycles, you should instead consider installing DOSEMU and just run those games under Linux. That would keep you from having to reboot, and you could have other apps going in the background; IM, IRC, etc.

Anyway, I have a lot of Dos games that I would like to run (on 5 1/2 in disk, so I will probably be able to get a cheap drive from somewhere) and would like to know if I can multiboot FreeDos and Linux on my Pentium 266 (the one I brought to installfest)? Will Linux set up a way that I can choose what to run on startup? Thanks, Steven P. <<ATT00548.txt>>
