Only me,
I want to use vmware to boot win98 from Linux (i've a dual-boot setup).
During the installation I chose 'Existing physical disk' for win98.
When i power up vmware, i get to the LILO prompt, choose windows (I have to
cos i can't check my email from linux - i nearly missed a meeting earlier on
cos of it!), and i get:
boot: windows
Loading windows
Error 0x00
boot: windows_
I can boot linux but it starts fscking and X won't work which doesn't matter
since i don't need to boot linux from linux (recursive thing goin' on).
Anyway, i'm thinking that this is a LILO error. Here is my disk setup:
/dev/hda1 windows
/dev/hda2 /boot
/dev/hda6 /
LILO is on the MBR....
Any idears?
