Cannonfodder Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I'm going to assume you are using a version of windows greater than win98? Windows doesn't need to be in the first partition, it justs needs to think it is.. I don't know the specifics, but you can tell lilo, when booting the windows partitions to make it C: After booting, windows will exist on C: (as far as it is concerned) Optionally, you could always get another hard drive and put windows on that? (safer?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(safer?) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> no I still have Win 98. It's on hda1, then I have a little /boot partition (hda5 I think I'm not on the box now) then a huge FAT32 partition (hda6) for datas. That is this partition that Windows doesn't see and I don't know how to tell it there is something there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
