Hello,
I apologise for asking this as I know it was just discussed (but i wasn't
paying attention), but I need help setting up a dual boot for Linux and
Windows. Is there a place I can search the archives of this list? If so,
I'll read that first.
If not, here's what has been happening when I try....
I first created a DOS partion for my entire hard drive, install Windows 98,
then attempted to install Mandrake through the lnx4win.exe program...it
started the install, but crashed hard right before the partition step. (So,
I though I may have to create a DOS partion that is smaller, leaving room
for the Linux partition on the same hard drive).
I then restarted, formated a DOS partiton of 3.5 Gb, leaving about 2.9 Gb
for Linux. I formatted, installed Windows 98, then tried to reinstall
Mandrake and I crashed again at the same point. I set the swap partition to
100 and user partition to 2000 (as to not exceed what was left).
I also tried starting Mandrake from the boot disk and install on the Linux
partition but it still keeps crashing.
If someone can point me to list archives or point me in the right direction
I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Tony Zoccolillo
