. I am having PIII-933 MHz system with 815E motherboard and 20GB hard disk.
I have Window 98 second edition installed on my system. After sometime,
I installed linux 7.0. Whenever i boot my computer it asked whether i wants to choose
window or linux.
Now problem arises. It does not asked me and it directly start in window.
Further i tried with bootable floppy of linux it worked. But i want that this problem
should be solved and i should not be depended on a floppy disk. Means when i boot
my system, it should show dual port booting option for selection.How this can be
possible.

If you were using LILO (Linux Loader) included with your linux 7 install then all
you should have to do is boot in to linux with your linux floppy and login as root.
At the console, type lilo. thats all you should have to do. If you have any problems
email me at ansonvillanuevas@netzero.net.
