2000 and Linux dual system installation

1. Install 2000 and reserve space for Linux.

2. Install Linpus Linux and make a bootloader for booting. Install LILO in the first partition of the partition where Linux is installed. Don't pretend to remember in the main boot record MBR! Remember!

3. Use the bootloader to enter Linpus Linux.

4. Take the boot file bootsect.lnx from the first volume. Use the following command

# dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1

5. Copy the bootsect.lnx file to the C drive. You can copy this file to the film first, then copy it to the C drive by NT. You can copy the file to the movie with the following instructions.

# mount -t msdos /mnt/floppy

# cp /bootsect.lnx /mnt/floppy

# umount /mnt/floppy

6 Change the NT boot.ini file property. Use the following instructions under DOS.

C:\\attrib -s -rc:\\boot.ini C:\\edit boot.ini

7. Add a line to the end of the file

C:\\BOOTSECT. L NX="Linux"

8. Don't forget to change the file properties back

C:\\attr ib +s +rc:\\boot.ini

9 After rebooting you will be able to see the Linux options.
