ok, i just installed the caldera openlinux 2.3, and it was simply the best install i've ever seen/done! It detected all my hardware, while it was installing, a tetris game popped up, got my butt kicked at 81% of the install with only 28 lines completed, then when the install was complete openlinux started up without a reboot!! Now onto my question, i've followed the how-to at http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Linux+NT-Loader-5.html, so i can dual boot with w2k. When i run the following dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1 it does not product a bootsect.lnx file required as per the how-to, Any clues/ideas/suggestions?
