**I justed finished installing Vector Linux. I am not sure which version. My hard drive is partitioned. /dev/hda1 is Windows ME (don’t laugh) /dev/hda2 is linux, I think. /dev/hda3 is the Linux Swap. I finished the post-installation configuration and I restarted the computer. It booted into Windows and I don’t know how to get into Linux. It says to go into DOS, open the veclinux directory which I have on the hard drive (hda1), and run linux2.bat which I don’t have in that folder and I don’t know any DOS commands or how to open that file from DOS. If someone can help me sometime in the next few minutes, that would really help. **

Isn’t there something in the Windows ME help documents (yuck) with something about dual-booting?

I know in XP home there is.

I have to set up how to boot once I get into Linux for the first time. The only problem is, how do I get into it for the first time?

Well what IS in that folder?

There are lots of files related to installing Linux, but I have used all of them and I can’t find linux2.bat. I was wondering if there was another way to start up Linux without using that file and without using the boot disk, since I don’t have one.
