I am going to install Win98 on my boot-up drive for the (only) purpose of
playing some online games with friends of mine. Currently the only OS
installed on my machine is Linux. My root partition with my Linux SMP
kernel is only 100 megs, and then I left the whole next 1900 megs free.
After that is a 2 GB FAT partition that I left intact from a previous
install of NT, that has since been erased (it was in the first 2 GB of
space on the disk, which prevented me from installing Linux). On a
separate drive is my /usr partition for Linux.
My question to you gentlemen (and ladies, if any) is this. How does one go
about making the disk bootable into Linux again after installing Win98? I
know that once I install Win98, it will hose whatever it is at the start of
the disk that makes Linux boot up. I don't want to lose my Linux
installation, and I really want to be able to boot up into either Win98 or
Linux.
Can I restore this by running the Linux installation CD? If so, how, and
how will I then boot up into win98 again?
Thanks,
Seth
ps: The game in question is EverQuest. Do NOT play this game. If you do,
you will immediately go out and buy a copy and then you will waste many
hours a week for the next several weeks doing nothing but playing this
online with your friends. For your own good, just leave this game alone.
