I got into windows :) . if i write there linux i get into linux . Do you habe a BIOS-level virus detector? It sounds like some kind of low-level software is detecting a change in the Master Boot Record, and doesn't like it. > Heres the problem ( 4 ) > *How can i make LILO graphical ? not the white text on black background > like in dos . LILO is strictly text. However, you can install Boot Magic (from the same company that did Partition Magic) and use that to boot your multiple partitions/operating systems. It supports Windows and Linux (Caldera OpenLinux eDesktop actually ships with a specially-licensed copy, and it works perfectly). It gives a pretty GUI screen and you can specify icons for each operating system. It also supports your mouse, so you just click the icon and away you go! > *Whats up whit the virus ?

Windows is unable to read the ext2 filesystem, so I just ignores that partition. There are apps available for Windows that *can* let you read your ext2 partitions, but I have never used them so I can't speak for their reliability. > *How can i login as root :D ? (this is a stupid question) At the login prompt, just select root, and the password you specified during the installation. If you are automatically being logged in as a default user (an option I have only seen available from Mandrake), then you need to make a security change which I never done, but which I know is possible. Someone else will need to answer this one.
