RE: New user question



Hi, I'm new to debian too but not windows so:

1.  Typically you'd want to install windows 'first' before linux to
avoid lilo being blown away by the windows installer.

2.  If your installing win 98 or me the fat32 is appropriate and
optional in win2k but ntfs is its and xp's native filesystem AND primary
fat partitions aren't recommended above 4 gigs.

3.  I've been using dual os win linux on desktops and laptops for a
while now and they're running fine-- just remember to read the
instructions thoroughly on the lilo installer.

While installing I made a separate 7 GB FAT32 Partition.

When I put the windows bootable disk , Linux does not reckognize it.
What
