Re: dhcpcd and win95 help please
You can still use lilo with a very short timeout value with win95 the
default. lilo will just flash on the screen briefly.
You could use a multi-config setup in the win95 partition which I believe,
it's been a long time, can be transparent to the user.
The only warning I would give you is that if this person hapens to run
fdisk, maybe to see where the rest of his disk went, the linux partition
will show as a non-dos partition. Might delete it on you.
