Wow....that is a nice link, wish I'd found it when I was trying to set up my dual boot.

Just out of curiosity, what Operating Systems are you trying to dual boot?

For your info............

If you need a good boot manager to handle multiple os I suggest gag
it's easy to install supports up to 9 operating systems:

Doc

I have Win XP & Red Hat Linux in my PC by using Partition Magic 8.0. I think there will be no problem if I want to add additional distros.

thnx doc crontab for gag link but i personally prefer XOSL......
try it

Cool :) I'm going to try xosl

:D

I have a dual boot on the same harddrive with Mandrake 9.0 and Windows XP.
It wasn't hard to set up (once I started trying with Mandrake 9.0 instead of RedHat 7.1)
I just partitioned my drive and Mandrake handled it from there...Super easy.
