Description Jonathan Kamens 1999-11-05 13:39:59 UTC

The installation guide says that if the user is installing
Linux on a machine with NT and wants the NT loader to be
able to load Linux, he should go to a specified URL at
www.linuxdoc.org to read the instructions for setting that
up.

I don't see why the text of the mini-HOWTO, which is only
four pages of plain text long and was last modified in 1997,
shouldn't be included in the installation or reference guide
as an appendix.  It's silly to make me go to a Web site
after installation to find out how to do that last step,
which is quite simple and easy to document.
