This point only important for those using EZ-Drive or a disk manager: Actually, as far as I've read, it appears that only XOSL (free) supports all combinations as well as the use of a disk manager such as EZ_Drive in addition to these other OSs (see faq or docs on the XOSL website). I don't know the specifics of whether the latest Boot Magic and other pay for programs will work with EZ-DRive installed, but certainly a few years ago when I looked into this, only XOSL would have the functionality to work with EZ-Drive. And since it is a moderately complex setup, I simply went back to switching boot partitions from DOS command line to run pqboot (partition magic's DOS boot partition switcher). Those with Linux know-how may have ideas as to how to get the Linux boot selector to work with EZ-Drive systems. ===== adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
