If you have booted from SRM, if you select this option, the installer
|
| 8 |
will write <command>aboot</command> to the first sector of the disk on
|
| 9 |
which you installed Debian. Be <emphasis>very</emphasis> careful - it
|
| 10 |
is <emphasis>not</emphasis> possible to boot multiple operating
|
| 11 |
systems (e.g. GNU/Linux, Free/Open/NetBSD, OSF/1 a.k.a. Digital Unix
|
| 12 |
a.k.a. Tru64 Unix, or OpenVMS) from the same disk. If you also have a
|
| 13 |
different operating system installed on the disk where you have
|
| 14 |
installed Debian, you will have to boot GNU/Linux from a floppy
|
| 15 |
instead.

If you have booted from <command>MILO</command>, the installer will
|
| 20 |
attempt to find a FAT-formatted partition and copy
|
| 21 |
<filename>linload.exe</filename> and the <filename>MILO</filename>
|
| 22 |
binary there.
