installed linux onto drive with existing dos/windows partitions (system
commander as boot loader), boot loader configuration screen offered option to
install to the Master boot record (MBR) of "/dev/hda3" (instead of /dev/hda) and
the first sector of boot partition of /dev/hda3 (which was my intent and did work).
