Ok, I've settled the problem of HD size and I can live with the answer now my problem is this, hdb hold all my linux stuff it works. hda is a small 250M that is dedicated to windows (for the wife and kids). Problem, I have now documentation on the drive since it came with the PC and dont know the jumper settings to make it a slave. Therefore it must boot. But, while installing windoze, and becoming very upset with reboot error stuff, I didn't remember to save my boot sector from windoze.
So, How do I setup lilo or loadlin to boot hdb? Which is better??
