RE: Installing Windows2K and Red Hat
???? It always baffles me when people start talking about this 'procedure'
when installing windows 2000 with a Linux system.
You should simply include the partition in your bootloader and instruct your
bootloader to halt at bootup. The only reason i can think of to install
win2k first is that it zaps your mbr wich results in some boot trouble when
using lilo (among others). Simply removing and then reinstalling lilo will
get you going none the less. I bet bootpart is a very nice tool but there is
NO need to reinstall anything if you know how to set up your machine.
Like allways : Read That Funny Manual

First, install windows 2000. then, install redhat, placing lilo in the root
partition, not the mbr. then use bootpart to add linux to the windows 2000
boot manager.
