Re: [newbie] Win2K dual boot?
i've got a tri boot of mandrake 7.1, win2k, and winME..no probs. the only thing is though, i don't have bootmagic, so the linux grub will boot first (menu 1) then i select windows and from there i go into win2k or winME (menu 2). that kinda sux cuz the timer is like 3 secs. i don't wanna screw with the partioning sections manually, so i left it at that, but besides that, nothing else. ps- staroffice 5.2 is great at converting office2k files back and forth, you probably have that with mandrake...get use to using it _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
