Hi all,
I am trying to dual boot XP and Linux on a single
250 GB drive. I am using the procedure as
written by aashiks "How to Dual boot with XP/2000/NT
and install linux/windows" which is essentually
identical to the procedure in "Linux in a Nutshell".
Part of the procedure requires me to edit the file
boot.ini on the C: drive. However there is no boot.ini
anywhere that I can find. Is this because I formatted
the drive to fat32 rather than NTFS? Or is there
something else I am doing wrong?
Try google on
boot.ini on the C: drive
and look at any of the top few results.
Perhaps you are just not seeing boot.ini in the explorer gui because:
<quote>
..Run notepad and edit C:\boot.ini. Note that C:\boot.ini is a hidden
system file, so it probably won't show up in Windows Explorer. To edit
the file, try: Start->Run and enter: notepad C:\boot.ini.

Thanks Jim, that did it. Been away from windows "too"
long and forgot about hidden files.
