I hope Pete (or Rob) will continue this port.
After using Linux for a few weeks, I have wiped all traces of
Windows from my HD. Linux is _far_ better for the things I want
to do. I did keep a tiny DOS partition, mostly for running
Euphoria stuff.
I am wondering: since Euphoria is written in C, how hard could
it be for Rob to complete Pete's port to Linux?
I know there is some concern about "free software", but hey,
there are hundreds of Linux apps you must _pay_ for already.
They don't feel any obligation to give you the source code
for these. Considering the sudden explosion of interest in
Linux, it would seem to be an excellent strategic move for
RDS.

I think it was not you, but Win95 that nuked the boot track.
And I don't think it was an accident. Win just wants to hog
the HD.
Same thing happened to me. You should be able to restore LILO
from a boot disk. I ran setup and skipped to the part about
writing LILO to the mbr.
