(I don't care about other OSs at this point). For example, suppose I installed the IBM boot manager first with eCS using half or so of the hard disk, leaving the other half blank. How would I proceed to install Grubb (the linux boot manager, which I think one needs) and then Ubuntu? Is there a step-by-step instruction somewhere available that might help me? Any help you may be able to give is appreciated! Lothar -- This email was Anti Virus checked by Astaro Security Gateway. http://www.astaro.com
