Question about Linux Mandrake on a second hard disk
I'm considering installing a second hard drive on my XP Home box to run Linux Mandrake.
I know that XP has to be running in FAT32 to dual boot on one drive, but is that true if Windows and Linux are on separate drives? Thanks!

XP certainly does not have to be FAT32. I've dual booted 2k and XP both on NTFS, and I've dual booted mandrake with XP and 2k, each on NTFS. All this is on one drive as well.

Thanks! I thought the Windows OS had to be in FAT32.

Only Win9x needs to be on FAT32
