Installing and Using BootMagic
BootMagic is a commercial bootloader included with PowerQuest's PartitionMagic program. This bootloader must be installed using Windows, and may be installed and configured after you have installed Linux in a separate partition. If your computer does not have a CD-ROM drive, you'll have to use another computer to copy the BTMAGIC directory from the PartitionMagic CD-ROM onto a floppy and then onto your Windows desktop. You can then click the Setup.exe program to install BootMagic. You'll see a dialog, as shown in Figure 3.1.
