If only that were true. It's not the CPU, it's the
BIOS. Many socket 7 boards have that capability too.
Your BIOS is your first important part, then your

DHCP does one job, DNS does another job. They can be combined like the other
posters have mentioned, but in your case keeping it simple is better.
DHCP serves up a unique address to each device that requests one.
DNS converts a name, prodigy.net, to a number, 65.15.175.5.

I just want to be able to refer to my local machines by name instead
of by IP address. So it sounds like using a host file is all I really
need. I wasn't sure if DHCP somehow updated the local host files with
the assigned IP addresses.
Thanks, everyone, for explaining the details.

difference, but I think what your saying is anything new enough to take a

However... its still pretty buggy, and I

You can have three separate /boot folders, one on each partition. Then
you'd setup lilo from mandrake (ie the first). You'd make changes to
lilo only in mandrake. You would then have only one image:
