extention). You should already have all the files in c:\linux or some_drive:\linux. Then edit c:\linux\linux.bat. You'll need a line like this: \linux\loadlin \linux\ltlk root=something rw In the above, replace something with your hard disc. I get the impression that you know enough about computers to understand what I'm going to say next: hda is the first ide hard disc, hdb the second ide drive etc. similarly you have sda and sdb for scsi discs. then you also need the partition number, which start at one. So hda1 is the first partition on the first ide drive, and sdb3 is the third partition on the second scsi drive. Do you get all this? in any case replace this in the line i gave you and comment out / delete the rest of linux.bat. so to recap your linux.bat file should look something like \linux\loadlin \linux\ltlk root=/dev/hda1 rw Hope this helps and don't hesitate to contact me for further help.
