If you are a newcomer, spare yourself the pain of doing things the old ways required by NT, and use a normal W98-FAT32/W2K-NTFS/linux scheme. There are differences among the dual boot installations of the various linux, and you certainly should ask about those in the appropriate places. ----- Original Message ----- From: "joyc" To: "cygwin" Sent: Monday, December 18, 2000 12:22 PM Subject: Re: New on sources.redhat.com: cpio-2.4.2 > I am a beginner as far as LINUX is concerened but I have used SCO UNIX. > i would like to dual boot with WINDOWS NT & WIN98 & LINUX(redhat) . > i have a 20 GB hard disk.
