- I am planning on installing Linux on my Amiga 1200 w/ CSA
- 12-Gauge. After I manage to get the SCSI working with Linux, I plan
- on using a 1GB or so external hard disk for Linux (with my swap
- partition on the internal IDE hard disk). Is there any reason for me
- to use amiboot or lilo when you can simply hold down both mouse
- buttons after a cold or warm boot and select the boot device that way?
- Will this work? Thanks.
