There seems to be a general consensus that if you have a dual NT/Linux
machine you have to use the NT loader. However, I have a 95/NT/Linux
machine and haven't had any problems booting any of them from lilo. Was I
just lucky or what?
In case this matters, the hds on the machine are

You can't install LInux with NT (or any other OS for that matter) running .
Since you
already have saved a good amount of space, you're well ahead of the game. All
you
have to do is insert the linux boot floppy, reboot, and follow the directions.
When
you install LILO, be sure to NOT install

I would agree with
Thanks Bob McGowan for your very informative reply. I gather that
1. Software raid is OK if problem is I-O bound, i.e.,
CPU would normally be idle waiting for I-O.
2. If we have multiple subsystems, we increase the

Know nothing about NT. If you look for information on Linux RAID (it's
in the Internet, I've read it, can't remember where), it's said that

Hello,
I got into a discussion with a system administrator of
a website. The system administrator wishes to use
NT because it supports software raid 5 (raid without
a special controller). I thought if it works,
there would be a terrible performance
degradation. The system administrator said o

wouldn't), so you'll need a
boot manager. (I use OSBS and like it.) Again this is only true if you
are running multiple
independent MS OS's you don't need this if you only have NT and Linux or
if you are
allowing the MS boot sector loader to handle dual booting.)

I don't know about loosing battles but
I just got a new drive and I want to put a few more Operating Systems on
it. Even thought NT is a pain to use I would like to have it around just
to run a few apps. But I am having some problems getting it to install.
