I asked a similar question in a different context "way back when," but with
all of the "stuff" going on (or not going on, depending upon your
perspective) with Mandriva of late, I'd like to revisit it.
I currently have a dual-boot XP Pro/Mandriva cooker setup, but I want to
install Ubuntu (or, more likely, Kubuntu) while leaving both XP and Mdv
intact. I've searched around, and see scattered references here and there to
setting up a triple-boot setup, but nothing [yet] that's dumbed-down enough
for me, as I tend to freak out when it comes to the lower-level stuff like
partitioning, file systems, manually modifying lilo, etc.
Anyone have a pointer/URL to a decent, basic walk-through for setting up a
triple-boot? FWIW, if it helps point me in the right direction, my current
disk usage/setup is:
hda1 NTFS XP Pro 14 GB
empty unformatted empty 9.7 GB
hda5 ext3 / 5.8 GB
hda6 swap swap 499 MB
hda7 ext3 /home 6.5 GB
Ultimately, I want to run [I think] Ubuntu/Kbuntu, but need the others intact
and operational for some time to come.
?
TIA
I have liked SimplyMEPIS or now simply called MEPIS.
