OK, cool! VM first them Boot Camp.

whether you use bootcamp to boot or envoke it through fusion. I
understand
that when you install through fusion, the process is completely
different
than with bootcamp and the drive is all one.
even if you have two copies of windows, I don't know if you can use
one as
vm and the other with bootcamp.

OK, so I can have Boot Camp running as a stand alone and Fusion will
need it's own partition. Correct?

So what I m getting from this message is that I can't install XP on
Boot Camp and then log on to the Mac side and install Fusion with XP.
Is this a accurate statement?

Listers I would like some guidance on installing Windows using Boot
Camp and Fusion. I want to do both, but I don't know where to start.
What is the best way to install Windows if I want both. The 32GB
FAT32
partition size is fine but I need help with understanding both
installations. Just give me the dos and don'ts for both Boot Camp
and
Fusion.
