BootPart is an easy tool for adding one partition in the Windows NT multi boot menu (by samples, OS/2 boot manager or Linux partition).

Bootpart 2.20 is compatible with Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

BOOTPART lets you add partitions in the Windows NT/2K/XP Multiboot menu. Usually, you only have an MSDOS or Windows 95 entry and one (or several) entries on the Windows NT multiboot.

With BOOTPART, you can add any partition on the menu. You can add OS/2 Multiboot, or Linux Partition (with Lilo) in the menu.

The only thing I highly suggest : your active partition on your first hard disk must be a FAT16 primary partition. This can be a small partition.

It seems it's actually impossible add an HPFS partition with OS/2 boot. If you find a workaround, please let me know.

BOOTPART creates a 512 bytes file which contains an image of a boot sector that loads the boot sector of the partition. After, this file is declared in C:\BOOT.INI (a text file used by Windows NT boot menu). The boot sector comes from FDFormat and WinImage.

This book covers GNU/LINUX system administration, for popular distributions like RedHat and Debian, as a tutorial for new users and a reference for advanced administrators. It aims to give concise, thorough explanations and practical examples of each aspect of a UNIX system. Anyone who wants a comprehensive text on (what is commercially called) ``LINUX'' need look no further--there is little that is not covered here.

Gotmail is a perl script that grabs your emails from Hotmail and either saves them as files or forwards them to another email address of your choice, provided you have sendmail running on your linux box.

Just download from »www.hawkins.emu.id.au/gotmail/, and make sure you look at the readme file for instructions on how to use. There is a sample .gotmailrc file that you can edit and place on your home directory to automate the whole process.
