Hi Jeff:
Thanks for ur immediate reply.
Sorry for the confusion, I meant my Linux boot disk does not work. Thus i
did not fdisk/mbr yet otherwise I can't boot to Linux unless I reinstalled
it again.
I created the Linux boot disk during installation and it just don't work.
I have a Compaq PC and the video card is integrated. It's a Trident Blade
3D/MVP4 and since I use the 'recommended' install it did the setting by
itself.
regards,
edison
