tramadol hci NT OS Loader + Linux mini-HOWTO Bernd Reichert, tramadol hci v1.11, 2 September 199 tramadol hci 1. Abstract This document describes the use tramadol hci f the Windows NT boot loader to start Linux. T tramadol hci is procedures have been tested with Windows NT 4 tramadol hci 0 WS and Linux 2.0. 2. How does the NT OS Loa tramadol hci er work The NT OS loader likes to have the boot tramadol hci sector from the other operating systems availab tramadol hci e as a file. It reads this file and starts the tramadol hci perating system selected, i.e. either Windows NT tramadol hci in different Modes or any other OS. 3. Tips o tramadol hci how to install Windows NT and Linux on the same tramadol hci System 3.1. Windows NT installation Try to in tramadol hci tall Windows NT first. If you want to use NTFS f tramadol hci r your Windows NT-partition, keep in mind, that tramadol hci the todays production version of Linux cannot a tramadol hci cess NTFS partitions. An alpha driver that can tramadol hci ead NTFS-Partitions is available at http://www. tramadol hci nformatik.hu- berlin.de/~loewis/ntfs. You may tramadol hci reate a separate FAT-Partition for data exchang tramadol hci or you have to use DOS-formatted floppies. 3.2 tramadol hci Partitioning Another Mini-howto recommends no tramadol hci to use NTs "Disk Administartor" to create the tramadol hci inux swap- and root-partitions. It is sufficient tramadol hci to see the free space there. I also recommend t tramadol hci use linux's fdisk later. 3.3. Linux installat tramadol hci on Now boot linux from diskettes, create the sw tramadol hci p and root-partition. Fdisk assumes the ntfs-pa tramadol hci tition to be a HPFS-partition. This is normal. tramadol hci Boot again from diskettes and install Linux as tramadol hci ou like. Just in case the installation procedur tramadol hci suggests that you could mount the HPFS partiti tramadol hci n which it has found: Ignore it. 3.4. Lilo Wh tramadol hci n you come to the Lilo-Section, specify your Lin tramadol hci x-root-partition as your boot device because th tramadol hci Master Boot Record (MBR) of your harddisk is o tramadol hci ned by Windows NT. This means that the root-entr tramadol hci and the boot-entry in your /etc/lilo.conf have tramadol hci the same value. If you have a IDE-harddisk and tramadol hci your Linux-partition is the second partition, y tramadol hci ur boot-entry in /etc/lilo.conf looks like: tramadol hci boot=/dev/hda2 If you have two disks and your tramadol hci inux resides on the first partition of your sec tramadol hci nd disk, your boot-entry in /etc/lilo.conf looks tramadol hci like: boot=/dev/hdb1 Run lilo with a kern tramadol hci l that matches your system. Check the kernel by tramadol hci booting from diskette first if you are not sure tramadol hci If you cannot boot Windows NT now, you have a tramadol hci roblem. I hope you have created a repair-disk tramadol hci ecently. 4. Bootpart There is a NT-programm called bootpart written by G. Vollant that can do the jobs from the next two points for you. Bootpart is available at http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/gvollant/bootpart.htm. If you want to know how things are working together, use the procedures described in point 5 and 6. 5. The Linux part of the work You have to boot from diskettes until the NT-part is fixed. Now you have to peel the bootsector from your Linux-root-Partition. With /dev/hda2 as your linux-partition, the dd-command is: # dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1 There is something wrong if your bootsect.lnx has more than 512 bytes. Now copy the file boots
