DONT tell it to use the master boot record when you do the install. Do it by
hand afterwards.

It should be. I haven't tried it but just boot with your LM CD and install
to the other disk. You may want to modify you  LILO or grub configuration by
hand to add the new boot partitions for your server.

[expert] Server Installation

2001-01-17 Thread Luca Braglia

Hi All,

The system I have is a pentium 200 Mhz with one hard disk ( master ) and I
dual boot with grub between windoze 98 and workstation MDK 7.2 .
Now I have another hard disk ( slave ) wich I would like to fully dedicate
to linux in a server installation.

My question is:

it is possible to do a server installation on the second hard disk without
compromizing the actual system ( W98 and MDK 7.2 ) so that I will be able to
choose to boot between windoze, MDK workstation and MDK server ?

The server installation will be used for didactical purpose only and not as
a real server.

Thank you so much for any reply

Best Regards

Luca
