Read up on lino.conf. > I learned the hard way windows can't deal with the partition table if it wasn't created with a windows tool (or a tool running under windows anyway) The point'd be, if I have only one windows partition, how'd I resize it using windows tools in a way that's guaranteed not to cause trouble, so that I could create a new partition for linux ? I know lilo and I understand it's configuration - it's great :) Joris _______________________________________________ debian-knoppix mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.linuxtag.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-knoppix
