thanx for you reply cshss
Yep, and Win98SE can't do the following things that linux can:
- Use more than one processor.
- Have an uptime longer than 50 days.
- Run bleeding edge hardware -- most support is dropping from 98 in favour of XP.
- Install drivers for everything just off the install. My last slack install involved adding NVidia drivers (they're proprietary closed source), while my last win98 install involved adding drivers for my mouse, my keyboard, my sound card, printer, TV tuner, NICs, etc..
- The list keeps going, if you want, I can expand on it.
yes but i also mentioned home pc.

and now i don't know what to do????

Are you asking if you don't know what to do? My guess would be yes then.
Anyway, boot off your linux CD and enter recovery/rescue mode, and then try and run the grub configuration off your system, after having mounted it, which I would guess to be beyond your abilities if you had problems with disk druid. Better idea here, just boot with an alternate and more recent distribution's install CD, and overwrite your existing linux partitions. I would suggest SuSE if you are looking for raw ease of install, or perhaps Fedora Core.
no iam just telling it as i felt ,yes i did reboot the system and reinstall the os (PCQ)

its installer was anaconda ( weird name) and i started the install
now it had a disk utility called disk drud. i had a nite mare with the partion ,i created a partion ,it won't take it,ERROR "/ primary not specified ", by god i had to make a 21 partions and delete 20 partions the 21st partion worked .

You *had* to create 21 partitions, and delete the first 20? Perhaps you could have looked up a guide on how to use Disk Druid, or simply used FDISK if you could have done it better with that?
well thanx , i din't know i coud use f disk for linux
thanx for you post
