Hi!
I was reading this thread and I want to comment what happens to me.
I have win98 installed in /dev/hda1 and linux somewhere else (suppose
/dev/hda5 or something like that)
If I configured vmware to boot from /dev/hda1 it gives an error...
but if I configure to boot from /dev/hda., vmware goes to lilo... then
I could choose to boot the already running linux (muy loco esto :) ...)
o boot win98 from /dev/hda1.
What I see is that if you use vmware you must think that is another machine
making use of your hard disk..... in this case /dev/hda.... and you can't
boot
/dev/hda1 without lilo... except that you have the mbr clean...
(remember format /MBR from MS-DOS).
