:~Dear Sir/Madam
:~
:~I have a copy of Linux Makedrake 7.1 and I would like to install it as linux
:~for windows but when I click on the button when the cd has autorun it says
:~that the program runs in real dos mode that this versionof windows does not
:~support. I suppose this is because I run
look do a regular install, you can configure shortcuts later on to do the
same thing, all it is is creating a shortcut using loadlin and specify where
the initial file for linux is, do a regular install it is much safer for your
linux environment it also runs alot faster!
www.linuxforum.com just had a thread about this...fo read it i think it is
still there.
