Re: duel boot linux and win95

[Doin' the Bull Dance, Feelin' the Flow...]

Hmmm...I dont know this for sure.  If someone wants to clarify for me, that
would be cool.    Am I wrong in thinking that you CAN install LILO on FAT32?
I put LILO in the MBR of my friend's computer and let it boot to either
Linux or Win95 on a FAT32 partition.  Am I just imagining things or what???
Thanks...
