Hi Doug, Don't know much about Linux, as I just installed ML8.1 myself one week ago. Trying to find help on driver install in this corner. With my system all install went well. You might look in your windows 2000 partition for the file "BOOT.INI". This should be something like:
[boot loader] timeout=0 default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINNT [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional" /fastdetect The last number (3) is the bootpartition number for w2000. Try any number between 0 and the maximum partitions on your drive. The file is attributes h,s,r so under dos first revert those attribs to be able to see the file. (attrib -s -r -h and after edit attrib +h +r +s). Maybe linux has made your first partition a other number. So W2000 sees its partition on an other number also. Maybe this will help you a bit further. Jan van Maasdam. Doug Lerner schreef: > > Hi, > > No - I didn't do anything special. I started out with two partitions on > my hard drive.
