If you created one. The only thing I don't like about that is other than 
the increadable reliability of floppies, the kernel on the floppy isn't 
updated like it is with booting off the HD when you do up2date. He just 
doen't like the picture or what?

>>I setup a Dual boot Linux - hdb /Windoze - hda box for a family member who like using Linux for the games.I set it up using LILO. He wants to have it boot directly into Winblows without using lilo. How do I get rid of lilo and have it boot into windows? I took out the Linux hdd and tried to boot into indows but can only see the letters LI . Do I need to blow away the mbr? Do I do fdisk /mbr in Windows or Linux to delete the mbr?  Any suggestions?
