List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hello I have a copy of partition magic 7.0 When I go into a wiserd and slect install linux as an option it gives me an x2 or some type of file system like that. Do I want this as a seporate partition on the same fat32 drive with windows 98 or should I just partition another drive chunk off tell it it is going to boot win mellenium, then install linux since I've heard it can use fat32? Also if I use what partition magic gives me how will the partitioning part of installation go? How can I tell if I will be on the write number of silinders? Thanks for any help with this.
