> Hello Linuxers > > I'm considering installing a second Western Digital 210mg hard drive on > my Gateway 2000. If I decide to put Linux on it, can I boot Linux from a > floppy disk? Or will I have to install LILO? Yes, you can use LILO from a floppy to accomplish booting up from a root filesystem on any hard drive. You can also configure LILO in the master boot record of the first hard drive so as to boot another O/S residing on that drive, or Linux on the second drive. -rich
