I am running Windows XP (drive C:). I have a second hard drive which has a
large NTFS partition and a Linux partition. I currently have Redhat 9
installed and have to boot from a floppy to run Redhat. Is there a way to
just add a line to the Boot.ini file so I can boot into Redhat without using
the floppy? I do not have grub or lilo installed.

Thanks
