hey im way off topic here but if you could spare me one answer i would greatly appreciate it. im setting up a laptop cause i use my desktop for experiments and stuff (new os's and such) but my laptops a pain to get a initial os on and is a HUGE pain to get linux to run on. my question is, whats the line of text/commands im supposed to enter to get a cdrom initialized under config.sys using mscdex? once i get this i can install windoze and get a backup computer on the net that i can use to research while my desktop is down :-p not to mention a friend wants to borrow it and hes not caught on to linux just yet. ive poked around on google a little but didnt see anything off hand... maybe i was asking the wrong questions. anyways any help to getting my cdrom initialized would be greatly appreciated. :)Do You Yahoo!?
