Hello, to make a long story short, i used to have win98SE and mandrake linux running on my computer, with LILO as boot manager (i think). Then i decided to upgrade from win98se to win2k and i did, expecting it to overwrite the MBR and put the w2k boot loader. BUT IT DIDN'T! So now i have w2k and mandrake on my pc, with LILO still, with bno problems.

Question 1: Can i install over mandrake another linux distribution? will it affect the settings on the MBR and/or the bootlader which runs perfectly?

Question 2: Is there a linux distribution out there that is not like 3 CDs!? I want to use linux and download it, but 3 CDs is just excessive. Is there a recent distribution with just one CD and that works well with KDE window manager?


Thanks in advance. 🙂
 
linuxiso.org. Look for yourself. Or do an FTP install and forget about cds all together.

And recent versions of linux should install LILO just fine. You can backup your LILO config if you want.
