Hi,
from experience as a "decent sysadmin" I would say that people who need NT
& Linux should use BootPart (from www.winimage.com). It is really a good
utility and you don't have a risk of fucking up your system with the
dreaded "LI" message ...
Sincerely,
Schlomo Schapiro

Nothing. The fine print of the license limits use of the software
to the machine it was purchased with.

You can contribute it to educational place which supports Linux, but has
no other choice but putting Windows, becuase not anyone knows Linux well
enough
I mean, there are computer farms in the technion, and we need licesnes for
everything. and even though we support Linux (tomorrow installati

Let me assume that what you have are packages and not only MOLPs
(licenses without media):
1. The CD's are good for freesbie.
2. You may also hang
We have tons of Windows Licences. Never used any. Any idea
of what we can do with them? They are packed in original

Unfortunately, most of the PC's are shipped these days with a
"built-in" license for Win. In addition,

And do you bloat up the price of your Linux system by bying an MS license,
too ? I think you shoot a bit beside the target here, I never ever met a
system where Window helped me with HW diagnostics when I couldn't do it
with Linux. Usually Windows is much worse (and you can't boot a Windows

Dunno. I could not afford experiments for reasons beyond my control,
I only read the RH installer's rambling and followed it.

An interesting question:
With today's huge disks, it's always useful to reserve a small
partition (hundreds of MB's) on the disk for Win, even in servers.
You never know when you will need it: For fonts (using DrakFonts),
for DLL's (to run Wine better), for hardware diagnostics and
detection (whe
