installation of Linux

[agaskell at west.bidmc.harvard.edu (agaskell at west.bidmc.harvard.edu)]

     Dear All,
     I have just joined the mailing list and have also just tried 
     installing Linux (Linux Universe). I have 2 hard drives and have win 
     95 on the 1st, Linux on the 2nd. I am having no end of problems with 
     the installation. When the MBR comes up on booting and I tell it to 
     boot Linux, it just boots win 95 anyway. So the only way I have 
     managed to boot up Linux is by using a Linux boot disk. However when I 
     am logged on, even though I have installed as instructed, Linux 
     doesn't know anything about the X-server...
     I am new to Linux, although I do have experience of UNIX. Is it 
     possible that I could meet with someone to walk me through the 
     installation? I know this is a lot to ask, but I would be extremely 
     grateful.
     
     Thanks,
