How did you get that to work? I tried this with my housemate's computer
the other day. The conclusion that we came to is that Windows wants to
be master on the first IDE chain. It wouldn't install on what we'd call
hdc with hda plugged in. The solution was just to make the linux disk
hdc and the Windows one hda... took a little fiddling with the Linux
install which thought it was on hda, but all works now.
Not sure that helps, just my experience.
Cheers,
Alex
