Dnno, but the PC Superstore seem to have reasonable prices on some
goods, highly inflated on others. Ring around using the Golden Pages!

I'd do the following:
Leave 98 on the first disk, Put Win2k and Linux on the second and use
the Win2k boot loader to boot each. A quick search of google will tell
you how to do that. Just make sure Win2k boots first!
Donncha.
