Hey there, whats the possibility that we could install grub or lilo onto the system and windows onto another drive or something to finalyl allow windows to support multiple OSes from installation?
We use grub to multiboot 2 windows and 1 linux.
General steps that we use:
Unattended based:
* partition up the system, creating 2 30% partitions for windows, and the various (boot/swap/root) partitions for linux
* delete the first windows partition, and create a FAT partition for installation, marked as active
* install windows on first partition
* after install, blow away second partition, create a FAT partition, mark it as active
* install windows on second partition
At this point, you have 2 windows on there, but can only boot to the second one (the active partition).
Linux step:
* kickstart the box with a standard install
* set up grub to boot among the 3 partitions, hiding/unhiding and marking the windows partitions as appropriate
Then we can use grub to multiboot amongst the 2 windows, and also the linux. Presumably you could have 3 windows, and a boot partition, if you prefered.
