  I'm not sure whether its mandrake or not, maybe its something to do with
the
  boot loader.
 
  Anyone had the same problem.

 None that I know of, except for the ATA100 IDE Interface. You have to
connect
 your hard drives to the ATA33/66  Interface first, do the install, then
edit
 some files to support the ATA 100 interface, then shutdown, change
 connections then restart. That's how it's done with an Asus A7V. Mine
rocks!

 Tyan only has 1 socket A MOBO The Trinity KT (S2390) and unless you have
 added an ATA100 controler card your 2 WDs are running at PIO 4 not 5 this
is
 why you ran into no problem during the Mandrake installation.

 Point of fact.
 The 7.2 installation will not recognize any onboard ATA100 controllers
 unless you pass the parms to the kernel and even then it may still hang
 during partition check.

Re: [newbie] Is there a way to access ext2 or ReiserFS from windows?

2001-02-08 Thread P_dog

Hmmm depends on your install choice i think


If ya did the Linux4win install it has links to your windows from linux but
the other way around I would have to say I truly doubt it

If you find out please post that..
