Dual boot upgrade...

[Bill Day]

sorry for my fast post jim, I did not notice the or 200 part...

some1 else said it, you will need a linux boot floppy so you can modify the
lilo.conf once 2k(nt as well) has screwed around with the boot partitions.
wiht any of the 9x, ME or XP you should have to do nothing other than
install/upgrade to the current windows partion.
