For whatever reason, I can't get the latest Knoppix to run on my laptop
unless I run it in "failsafe" mode.
Any ideas? I see several "laptop modes" on the cheat sheet. Perhaps
it's something there? I've been able to get past versions going, so I
can't imagine what it could be this time...

http://marc.herbert.free.fr/linux/win2linstall.html is pretty cool --
grub for NT allows direct booting of Grub and thus installing a distro
as long as you have a distro's kernel and initrd files :) no cdrom, etc
needed!

Before all of this, I had Red Hat 9 on there. I nuked it and now have a
completely clean install of XP.

Cool; thanks, Will. I just dropped by CIS, and Jared printed out for me
his grub.conf
I like the idea of using XP's boot record, as XP will pretty much stay

What kind of suggestions are you looking for? A howto? Caveats?
What I have found is that since winblows thinks it's God's gift to the
PC, it makes it's partition the active one whenever you boot into it.
So the only way to make sure you have a Gru
Anyone have any suggestions on dual booting XP and Linux? Just put XP
on and am now forming a plan for Linux (preferably Gentoo).
