Not exactly. I am running 8.2 on Fujitsu.

The BIOS gives this information about the disk: Fujitsu MPG3204AT E.
As for the other OS, I have W2K on the first 2,5Gb partition, which
boot just fine.

Now, when I load Linux, I get a whole page of information. I guess the
problem lies somewhere here. If not, I will write down the rest.
