Would this also ring true if I wanted to install either W2k or even another Linux distibution onto another parition on the same h/d as Mandrake? I've got it running 'Perfectly' now, and don't want to muck around too much!! (Why do I want to do this-I'm running W2k at my office and need to get up to speed with it's little tricks) Cheers Ansy
