> This is interesting. I didn't know that Windows boot loader can boot > GNU/Linux. The solution I provided you works only if you use GRUB. Steps 7-9 do the trick. It is well documented on internet. Well, what's the reason not using GRUB and to stick to Windows boot loader? This is my home machine, my wife uses it for her work. So I want to make sure that Windows continues to function/boot correctly. I have already messed it up once in past (Ubuntu 5.10 days, I think) If it was non-shared machine, I would not keep windows :) -Mandar -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: (plug-mail@plug.org.in) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to plug-mail-requ...@plug.org.in for mailing instructions.
