Re: [newbie] Compatabilty
Sort off. Three things you must remember: 1. install me first. 2. -Never- run the recovery program. It says it will fix the computer if it breaks down but it also rewrites the mbr(rumor, but play it safe) 3. Have a linux bootdisk. Just in case. - Original Message - From: "Anthony" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, October 27, 2000 10:28 PM Subject: Re: [newbie] Compatabilty > I'm not totally sure on the Windows ME compatibility part, but I don't see why > it wouldn't work.

Re: [newbie] Compatabilty
I'm not totally sure on the Windows ME compatibility part, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Also, I would install WinME first because knowing Microsoft they'll over write the boot sector. So if you had installed Linux first it would over write LILO/GRUB and then you couldn't get to Linux without a boot disk. So install WinME first, then Linux. > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Will LM 7.1 play nice with Windows ME? If so, which should be installed > first. > > Thanks > Scott B.

Re: [newbie] Compatabilty
Yes, I mean dual boot. The reason I ask is that Win. ME has no native dos support. Another question, can LN 7.1 be installed from a dos boot or windows recovery disk? - Original Message - From: "Yacketta,Ronald J" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, October 27, 2000 1:03 PM Subject: RE: [newbie] Compatabilty > Play nice? > do you mean dual boot? > > =>-Original Message- > =>From: Scott B.

Re: [newbie] Compatabilty
Yes they play well together. Mind you they hate each other too!!! Install ME first and then Linux. - Original Message - From: "Scott B.
