Going to Dual Boot PC tonight


Recommended Posts

hey guys tonight I am going to try to dual-boot my PC tonight

Wish me luck!

and is there anything that I should be careful about ?

and anything that I should always remember?

here's what I am doing :

Backing up my data :)

Creating boot discs for both Windows XP and Mandrake 9.2

I partitioned my hdd (40 GB) into 3 sections :

1. Windows XP (20 GB)

2. Mandrake (10 GB)

3. I am planning on partitioning my drive into this so that I can access this data (mainly mp3s and movies) from both Windows XP and Mandrake ... this is going to be (V)FAT (the only problem is I dont know how to do that) (10 GB)

I have defragged my drive

so am I ready to go?

That sounds three times as thorough as most people I know! ;)

You should be just fine! Welcome to Open Source! :D
