Other Help Topics :: how do i duel boot with windows



i have windows 98 SE how can i duel boot it with DSL?
You will need to shrink your Windows partition using  something like Qparted. The dsl repository has a parted.dsl that will work. Then you make new partitions from the free space, and install DSL using the option under Apps->Tools->frugal grub install. These are very basic instructions, of course, but maybe that will get you going in the right direction.

I wondered, does the GRUB in DSL(latest one) autodetect other OSes such as Windows XP and all and adds them to the menu.lst?
Because i suck at editing GRUB configs :s
At the end of the install script you will be asked if you have Windows installed on the first partition. Answer "y" and it will write the proper info in the menu.lst file.
I'm going for it then :D
