I have Windows XP installed on my D: drive and Windows Vista installed on my C: drive. I’ve edited the cfg files and moved some boot files for XP over to the C: drive, so I could choose between XP and Vista at start. My problem was, I wanted LINUX as well. Apparently I’m behind the times with Linux, because Ubuntu has something called Wubi which was PERFECT for my situation. All I had to do was install Wubi. That’s it, no complex partitioning, no messing with boot loaders, nothing. Easy. I still use the Vista bootloader to either boot XP, Vista, or Ubuntu.

Ubuntu is installed on my C: drive with Vista. It does not interrupt the NTFS file system. No partitions, oh how they have caused me problems in the past. What’s more, you can just uninstall Wubi like it’s a windows program. SO EASY. I can’t believe how EASY it was. I never had anything so EASY to work with when I was first doing my dual boot configurations. I just can’t beleive how far things have progressed behind my back

So, if you want a completely AUTOMATED dual boot configuration with Linux, Wubi is MOST DEFINITELY your choice. I only wish Slackware had an option like this. Sorry for my over emphasis of how EASY it was, but I’m just dumbstruck at how EASY it was.

Next stop, quad boot. I don’t think this will be as easy
