I would like to use w2k because of the large partition I created when I first installed w2k on my laptop. I have installed linux on the remainding free disk space and it appears to install correctly. But I can't boot from the HD but must use a floppy to boot the linux partition.

I searched google and linux.org but I don't see anything that relates to booting Linux from w2k's loader. Maybe I'm missing something????? I'm using Red Hat 6.5 if that helps anything. I really don't want to change the setup in the w2k partition because it's almost prefect (for me) and it's greater than 1024 sectors.

I'd be willing to use the floppy to boot - but I can't figure out how to get the correct kernel to boot. In other words the boot kernel doesn't contain any changes I make to the kernel (i.e. sound card, NIC) using linuxconf.
