I presently am dual booting Win98SE and Win2K on a 9 or 10GB HDD.  I also have a 40GB drive with apps and data, partitioned into 9 1/2 GB chunks.

I like Win2K, but it will be my last M$ OS (XP turns me off and Palladium scares me) and would like to replace 98SE, which is on the C: portion of the small HDD and is 2.92GB, with Mandrake 8.2, which a friend with DSL burned the 3 ISOs to CD for me.

As most of E: is devoted to 98 apps and data, that would eventually become available for Mandrake use also.

Everything is FAT32.

The default boot is 98SE on start-up, unless I use the arrow key to select 2000.

I have 1.03GB free space on the C: drive.

It's an old home made box with dual Pentium Pro 200s on an Intel PR440FX mobo and 192MB RAM.

Based on what I've seen on this list in just a few days, I don't even qualify as a "newbie."  Can anyone direct me to where I can get the info I need to accomplish my goal of replacing 98 with Mandrake or utilizing the free GB I have on the C: drive to add 8.2?

TIA.
