Well, a very nifty way to do this if you are using dos 6+ is to simply have one of your multiple boot options load loadlin automatically, causing it to look like you istalled some nifty bootmanager like OS/2's (which I used for quite a while) Of course I solved the problem by only having linux on my machine <g> And BTW, what do you mean sacrifice MBR? I don't use mine for much but booting, and the loadlin route is a pretty good one for newbies specially who might get lilo wrong... ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Neilen Marais <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 27-Nov-97 Time: 14:48:46 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
