Re: Linux For Windows

[Al Hudson <nospam [at] york.ac.uk>]

In my experience, MacMillan is a poor show next to Mandrake - they
bastardise it somewhat, and remember, Mandrake won't support MacMillan
Linux (neither do MacMillan really, either). Mandrake 7.0 Powerpack is
probably a better bet. As for Linux for Windows, tried it myself, but
separate partitions are much better. You can always 'loadlin', remember.
Linux4Windows is always much slower...

Cheers,

Alex.
