hi,
do you know any way to configure the os2 bootloader from pqmagic to boot linux from a logical partition? i have 3 primary partitions (os2 bootloader, 2 windows) and linux on an extended partition, everything under 8 gb.
thank you,
CMW

I don't know how to do it with bootmagic but you can always use a boot disk for linux

I always set one of my Windows partitions active and install BootMagic and then add the multiple operating systems to the BM menu. Doesn't matter if Linux is installed in a logical partition or not. BootMagic can handle booting from a primary or logical partition.
