Hi,

No idea for vmware, but theres a great howto on dual booting windows NT (I
had no probs using the same techniques for a Windows 2000 Pro / RH6.2 Box)
and Linux here:

It may save you some time everytime you boot into Linux :)

Hi.

I recently installed RedHat Linux 6.1 on my machine as a dual-boot with
Windows 2000 Professional. When I need to use Linux I just insert the
floppy and boot from there. I tried to use VM-Ware in the same way to boot
from the floppy. When ever it tries to read the MBR, it gives me a VM-Ware
Read-Raw error. Any ideas on how to get around this?

Thanks, Brent.
