Alexey, what could be easier than plunking the install disc into your computer, letting it resize the partitions, where all you have to do is tell it how much space it can take for linux; and then installing linux and the grub bootloader, that allows you to choose between windows and linux at boot ? Even for trying linux out, you can make a small partition w/ linux and the bootloader installed by letting linux "shrink" your partition. If they hate it you simply remove it... -- j I've lived in the real world enough, we're all here because we ain't all there. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
