Ok,
I want to install Lycoris's Desktop/LX
The problem with Partition Magic is that when I go to create a Linux partition, my harddrive gets all scrambled.
I have 38 gigs with windoze installed on fat32.
I want to create a 4 gig partition for Linux
after is tell Partition Magic 7 to create a logical parition, of 4 gigs, in Linux ext format, my harddrive looks like this...
7.5 gigs fat32, 4 gigs linux, 25.5 gigs unallocated
Now, I have no idea what that would do to my harddrive and can I also reassign the unallocated space to my fat32??
Thanks

Good choice... this distro is designed for Linux newbies and people who aren't good with computers...

It doesn't do any damage to your hard disk...

Alrighty then
Ok, I did install Lycoris Desktop/LX on 4 gigs and Windoze Me on 34 gigs
But, the problem I am now having is that the default OS is linux and I want it to be Microsoft ME
Can anyone help me reassign the partition info so windoze me is primary and linux is secondary......

Is your boot loader LILO or GRUB? I can help you with either.
spinningheel4242:
ya, my boot loader is grub...
right now, it only gives me 5 seconds to choose an operating system (Linux being the default)
I would like to change it to windoze as default and linux as secondary option...thanks
