I'm sorry ???

And for the grub thing, you just have to follow the install guide.

ejames82:
the guide says this is next:

"In the grub prompt,
root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)
quit"

do i add these commands one at a time?

root (hd0,0)
then:

setup (hd0)
then:

quit
is there a special way of "quitting"?

or, do i put all three commands in at one time, like this:
root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)
quit


thanks again.

ejames82:
i am about ready to try it to see if it works.

ejames82:
IT WORKS!

it shut down completely, boots up nice and quick, no jittering of the mouse, goes to websites quick, it's real nice.

while it's fresh on my mind, i think i'll put it on a second hard drive.  i promise not to bother anybody though.  if it doesn't work i'll just be happy with one hard drive.

thanks so much to everybody.

ejames82:
i was also able to install it on a 40gb hard drive.  this time, relatively quickly.
works good.

thanks again everybody.
