Actually, another option instead of a boot disk is, if you have Win9x or dos installed on the same hard drive is to use a program called LOADLIN or LOADLIN16 to allow you to boot from dos. best thing to do is create a dis partition at the front of the drive. copy the linux kernel to this partition, and copy loadlin16 to it as well. then in your configuration files type: C:\LOANLIN VMLINUX.GZ ROOT=/DEV/HDA5 RO this should automatically boot you into linux
