Thanks for your prompt reply, Skipper. I have been using Red Hat 7.3 in a virtual machine (VMware) for learning, and I think I am ready for a dual boot between 2k and RH 7.3.

I've had good luck with using BootPart as an extension to the Win2K boot
menu to enable multi-booting and not having to use floppies.
 
Win2K is really a pain on how it handles others trying to boot it, and
the standard linux booters... try this it's worked for me.

are the pointers I've got ...
 
Have fun,

I cannot activate the onboard network card. (RH v8) Any suggestion how I could proceed ? (I'm a newbee in Linux)
 
Thanks.

Did you look on the CD that came with the motherboard for drivers for your NIC? My ASUS P4PE CD has drivers for Linux to activate both Broadcom chips that they used with it.

The only Linux driver is for the on-board sound card.
But it works fine now. Reason of problem was bad DNS settings. Thanks for help.
