- I want to install my sls stuff but am having trouble. I boot from my a drive
- then when prompted for which drive I wish to install from I specify
- b: 31/2 floppy. ans insert my 'utilities' disk. All goes well to here.
-
- My question are:
-
- Can I still make my boot disk on the A: drive or do I commit myself to booting
- off of b: when I install from there?
-
- I have 70 meg of disk space I am using for Linux When I make my first
- linux fdisk partition should it bee all of that or should I go ahead on
- and make swap partitions and other parttions /x etc. or can I just use
- tha one partition plus a swap for everything? I will be installing the enire
- sls package once I get confirmation that the ATI ultra pro local bus works
- with linux and x. So how would you out there set up your drive?
-
- Thanks ....
