Very Computer

Hi,

    I  have  a 9 GB drive which I wish to use it for 3 OS's , WIN95,WIN
NT 4.0, and Red HAT linux 4.0.

I have WIN95 in C: partition and WINNT in D: partition. Now whenever
I attempt to install Linux
I loose the boot sector and hence WINNT. Can someone point to the right
procedure to avoid all this
starting from partitionin the disk. i.e. Should I use WIN95 partitioning
or WIN NT partitioning to partition
the disk. I used WIN95 fdisk since that was the first OS I loaded.

Thanks/

With a setup like you have, however, I would simply use the NT Boot
Loader to boot the different OSes.  Check out:

In fact there are several HOWTOs and Mini-HOWTOs that you probably
want to take a look at, so just stroll on down to:

and take a look.
