Not true, here is the partition table of a machine I setup with windows in the second primary.

I think it puts it's kernel right at the front of it's partition. ################################################ Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 3739 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1 2 16033+ 83 Linux Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary: phys=(15, 44, 2) should be (15, 254, 63) /dev/hda2 * 3 257 2048287+ 6 FAT16 /dev/hda3 258 1532 10241437+ 83 Linux /dev/hda4 1533 3739 17727727+ 5 Extended /dev/hda5 1533 2807 10241406 83 Linux /dev/hda6 2808 3715 7293478+ 83 Linux /dev/hda7 3716 3739 192748+ 82 Linux swap ################################################## -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
