installing win98 after everthing else....
Howdy all,
I've got a "tri-boot" box - linux, win95 and freebsd... I would like to
install win98 and eventually erase win95. I have 2 hard drives
configured as follows:
master:
/dev/hda1 win95
/dev/hda2 freebsd
/dev/hda3 debian root
/dev/hda4 debian swap
slave:
/dev/hdb1 extra ext2 primary
/dev/hdb2 another ext2 primary
/dev/hdb3 vfat primary
/dev/hdb5 vfat logical
/dev/hdb6 vfat logical
/dev/hdb7 ext2 (/usr) logical
/dev/hdb8 vfat logical
/dev/hdb9 vfat logical
/dev/hdb10 vfat logical
What I want to do is change /dev/hdb1 to vfat, unplug my master,
configure my slave as master temporarily, install Win98 on /dev/hdb1,
then reassign original master / slave, put Win98 in Lilo and have a
"quad boot" box for awhile whilst I get stuff tranferred from win95 to
win98... my question is, will win98 allow itself to be installed on a
partition of my choosing, or will it just erase everything and install
itself wherever it wants?
Thanks in advance,
Rich
