Any GNU/Linux distribution would work on a windows partition. However, only very few distributions still offer a similar option during the initial installation. And since you've asked, I presume that you're not familiar with the features the Linux kernel offers you. Hence, the answer for you would probably be no. Please split up your windows partition and reserver one or two (a second one for swapping, eg. 128MB of size) for GNU/Linux. Please read our installation manual which is online at: <http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual>. In general, though, the umsdos driver offers a Unix filesystem on top of a FAT16 (or FAT32, I guess) filesystem. So if your windows partition is using such a filesystem, you could load the umsdos driver into the kernel and access C:\LINUX as / within the GNU/Linux system. This probably requires some fiddling during the installation but should be doable. Regards, Joey -- Computers are not intelligent. They only think they are.
