Hi all, Again I am here asking the same question as I got confused because of my colleague's comment. I asked my colleague (who is in charge of all network administrator - setups - hardware configurations etc etc etc)). I asked the same question that I am having 4 drives, I want one drive to be converted into Linux. He is saying that if I want to format one drive (F:) out of total 4 drives and install Linux, then I need to do lot of configurations. According to him I need to change BIOS set up of windows so that it will understand 2 boot sections. Currently my window system is recognising only one boot system and some predefined partitions. So if I want to remove one partition and change to Linux, I need to repartition i.e. format again. That means lot of info which is on other drivers will be wiped off.????? Is there any remedy for this ? I want my all other drives running properly whenever I am in Windows and I should be able to use Linux commands when I am in Linux system. Can any body comment ? manisha
