Depends on the MBR. With a DOS/Win MBR, you're correct. But a LILO MBR knows how to find the rest of the boot loader even in a logical partition. It is possible to put LILO in the boot record of a primary, and allow the old-fashioned MBR pass execution there, but not necessary, at least until you re-install Windows, and it rewrites the MBR to suit its fancy without so much as a by-your-leave. Keep that boot floppy handy in such cases. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less!
