Building new computer. Thoughts?

	There is actually a small little Windows NT utility that makes this a snap
to do. It's called BootPart and is available at:
http://www.winimage.com/bootpart.htm . It's "card ware" so the price is
right. I recently used it to boot Windows NT 4.0 (hda1), Linux (hda2), and
BeOS (hda7) without any problems.
