As I explained, I use my second hard drive for my Linux installation(s) . I
have previously partitioned my secondary drive into 3 partition, including a
swap file. Both Linux operating systems installed but I couldn't boot the
Mandrake, which I installed second. I think the boot floppy is probably the
answer to my problems until I get to know the Linux system better.

          Thank-you all for you input :>)
