Yes you can, what Linux distro are you using.
Grub or lilo can do it

Take care,

Hi Guys,
I am trying to put win2k and linux on the same PC. I have 2k on HDA and
Linux on HDB.
I have to boot linux by floppy disk. Is it possible to have both on the
boot
loader.
If yes, how.
My win 2k is NTFS format.
Thanks

One of the things to check for on a poorly performing Ethernet
connection
is a duplex mismatch, especially with Windows involved. The drivers
commonly autonegotiate a full-duplex link but really only run at
half-duplex. That WILL tank the performance. You say it is 100baseT,
not
100baseTX (switched). Maybe try forcing the Windows NIC to half-duplex.
If your network gear is sufficiently sophisticated to be able to show
errors on the ports check to see if your getting collisions on a
full-duplex link or some other wierdness.
