I tried to dual booted Win2k NTFS and Mandrake Linux 8.0 before and I was able to detect my NTFS partition. If I still remember correctly, I just installed Win2k NTFS first and Mandrake Linux 8.0. So far, Mandrake Linux 8.0 automatically detected the Win2k NTFS partition. But I've read an article or doc which I really don't remember that when installing Win2k NTFS and Linux in a single drive, you must set your MBR to your first partition - your Win2k NTFS, and not to usual Linux partition. ...And that was before... --- Marvin T.
