Having just purchased a new Toshiba A45-S150 laptop today, I was anxious to split the hard drive for a dual boot with Linux. Now I know XP and Linux don't exactly go hand in hand, but I tried resizing the XP partition nonetheless. While installing Linux in the free space though, I received an error about a particular file not loading properly. I continued on, and found that when it showed the images to be booted by lilo, there was nothing there. I figured it was a bad disc, so I tried another...same error, but for a different file, this one I remember being glibc.
The hard drive works fine when there's nothing but XP, but installing Linux has given me nothing but errors. I strongly doubt Toshiba would have a computer that wasn't Linux friendly, but before I try wiping out Windows completely, does anyone have any suggestions?
