Hi Josh, While grub is best suited for booting, the ntbootloader option can come in handy. If you use reinstall windows often like I do(I use just for games), You'll discover windows replaces grub everytime and you have to use rescue disk to get your lfs back. But by using the ntloader you can always have linux when you want it. -- I don't know how much of what I say is true -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
