Does anyone know of a freeware dual boot manager available out there for a
Pentium PC.
Basically, I already have Windows XP on my C: drive. I want to install
Mandrake Linux on the empty D: drive. When I first boot up the computer, I
want a boot manager to come up and ask me which OS I want to use. Ideally,
if I don't answer in a few seconds, it would go to XP.
I know nothing about Linux, so I want to avoid all the cryptic DOS-type
commands that I've seen in Linux until I have a chance to play with it for
awhile. Also, the program should do any repartioning of my C: drive that
might be necessary to accomplish this.
And, it does have to be Mandrake Linux, so please don't suggest any other
releases. The project I need to work on uses Mandrake on their PC's, and I
don't want to try to get used to more than one version.
Thanks,
Big John
