Re: [newbie] Dual Boot Win 2000 / Mandrake 7.2

2001-03-19 Thread Emilio Correa


Hi.

I want to setup a Dual Boot with Win2k and Mandrake 7.2.  Is there any
documentation that will walk me through each step?  I have very little
experience with Linux so I have no idea how to go about doing this.

Thanks,
Raja

Hi, I recently installed first the win2k in a ntfs file system, then I 
installed LM7.2 (expert mode) with GRUB option as the boot manager. After 
the installation LM7.2 and GRUB detects automatically the win2k and 
included the boot option in GRUB.
If you can install both operative systems for the first time, You should 
not to have problems, like me. Try.
Good luck!
