List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Geoff asked if there is some way to do the fdisk /mbr trick from Linux, and I have thought a lot about that. Someone else commented that there seems to be a lot of DOS/Windows advice on the list on this question of unloading linux... For what it is worth: Linux users generally are not much interested in unloading linux. They are usually interested in unloading DOS/Windows, and the lilo command plus the linux fdisk are the way to do that. I do not believe there is a hell of a lot of interest in a linux command to unload linux! *<<<=-=>>>*<<<=-=>>>*<<<=-=>>>*<<<=-=>>>* Visit me now at http://www.valstar.net/~hallenbeck The Moon is Waning Gibbous (90% of Full)
