I had problems with RH 6.1 {for some reason, it didn't like the extended
partition I had RH 6.0 instellad in}, but other than that no. And I've
actually got a 3Com Megahertz modem/LAN card, not the Xircom. It was way
cheaper. :-)
I used the old "make a copy of the boot sector into a file" method because
I was running NT, and I've never yet been able to make LILO kick into NT's
boot loader successfully, but apart from that - no problems. I've got a
DOS partition {with DOS installed}, NT and now SuSE 6.4 installed on it,
all living happily. SuSE 6.4 even reads the NT partition properly and
mounts it - colour me impressed! I'll have to buy a copy of it instead of
just borrowing one. :-)
