I installed Linux Mandrake 7.0 on windows 98se using Lnx4win. Since I could boot to linux from windows I turned off the boot screen that asked me if which one i wanted to boot to. Now that I have installed Windows Me I cannot open Linux from windows. and when I try to boot from a startup disk it tells me Lnx4win has to have 32bit something or other. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

It sounds like you'll have to reinstall Lnx4Win.

WIndows ME doean't have a "real DOS" mode so:

1)-No more desktop Icons
2)-Only way to enter Linux anymore is thru GRUB.
