Re: boot error



I tried setting no schema and then just a single primary partition "C:" for
FAT16 and FAT32 file systems by oem Windows 98.

I was supposing that bootable CD-ROM could boot Linux no matter what file
systems the HD had.  And then we change the file system for Linux, don't we?

Regards,
Hoshino
