I propose automatic week vacation for this. I mean, I've done it once or twice too but this is getting ridiculous.

just tell me this.

if i reformat with the linux on cd reformatter, and make a 4 gig fat-32 partition, will it automatically see only a 4 gig partition where it can install win98?



also, i have the cd to win98, but the cdkey to a win98SE. will these work together? (i have both, but only could find one cd and the other cd key...

...<i will not swear>...


...anyways, your order of install will be
1)win98
2)xp
3)rh

...install win98 on C. Boot with XP cd and install XP on D drive. XP boot loader will see win98 and it will be
added automatically so u can choose 98 or XP on bootup. Then install RH. Hope u know what ur doing when
configuring lilo and RH....hate to see u waste hrs of work.

Just get yourself to the correct forum.

Win98 needs to be C drive.
