Wow! You can do that? Does this mean that you have a loadlin icon on your 9x desktop that will cause loading to boot Linux and replace 95 as the running OS? I am confident that Linux will not run "under" 9x. How does this work? It seems to be a bit dangerous. If you have files open in 9x wouldn't you lose your work when Linux started? Ok, I can RTFM if you don't feel like going into it. I probably won't look into this I haven't touched 9x in months. I use Solaris, NT, and Linux.
