Can i 'Tri Boot' with Win98/2000Pro and Redhat Linux7?
Hi all! Have some question with my PC. Now i'm dual boot with Win98 and
Win 2000 Pro, can i make it 'Tri boot' with the Linux? I'm quite interesting in Linux especially the Red Hat Linux(Is it ver 7 the latest one?) i read some article about the installation of Linux, say that it will take all the other free space in the selected partition. Below is my PC drive info. C:\Win98 D:\MP3/picture E:\GHOST image of Win98 F:\Win2000 Pro My planning is make a new partition for Linux which will take the space from D:\ drive, i'll take about 1GB of space. If above step was all right, can i know the step of install the Linux? Any reply are welcome!! thanks.. thanks! LM |

Copy everything out of D:
Run the Linux install. Repartiton D: (it will create a root dir, swap, and home dir within the D: partition, and you can specify sizes. Claim the remaining space as extended DOS (or Linux, or NTFS) at the same time. Let lilo (or grub) install for the multi-boot menu. Done. |

I've always prefered using the NT bootloader, if I'm dual booting.
