Split the hard drive so I can put Linux on and keep Win98 too.

win98 is suk.  If you\'re going to dual-boot something dual boot it with 2k/XP.

I know Win98 sucks but I heard 2K and XP aren\'t much better (well, XP a bit better).

Ok, whatever. I don\'t like MS to begin with. Maybe I\'ll upgrade but not sure. Want to try Linux first and see how I like it. So Linux partitions the hard drive automatically so I can have 98 and Linux?

Some versions of Mandrake used to come with a limited version of Partition Magic.  The best thing to do is get a copy of this yourself; it\'s great to have anyway.

Windows will cause probs if it\'s not on 1st partition of disk.  Win2k is [size=8]>[/size] Win98 (which is steamy DOS crap).

Install Linux on 2ndary partition and its boot loader there as well.  You can install LILO or GRUB on your MBR but it can be a headache.  Check out this dual-boot howto:

I don\'t really understand it but when I buy the software, I\'m sure it will have easy instructions.
