Dual Booting Class?
I feel I must be enlightened to the art of Dual booting. Such questions that come along with this..journey.. are what risks may there be? What harm will be done to the system..I seek interest in either Windows XP SP2/MacOSX/RHL.
 . Btw I'm kind of a newb with prog'ming. Oh and I'm using NTFS.Jam it back in, in the dark.

So is Ubuntu a good way to go? Do I use Partition Magic to make the partitions? 3? 1 for WXP, 1 for Ubuntu, 1 for the programs?

Is there something bad about putting mac on a PC?
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

I have about 20 GB of free space on my 120 GB NTFS drive. How should I create the partitions needed for Ubuntu?

Do I have to back up my files before I do partition?
I was speaking idiomatically. |

Ok I tried using ubuntu partitioner to use the free space and I dunno what I it was doing. My screen was just blue for like an hour. I think I'm gonna go with Mandriva.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |

Lol forgot to thank u all for the help.
Here is... Anyways, I used Partition Magic to shrink and finally got Ubuntu installed. To uninstall just overwrite Master Boot Record then delete Linux Partitions. Mandriva supports NTFS. Does that mean I will get to access the same programs I could in Windows XP? FELIPE NO

Have it set up with Mandriva Linux 2006. Needed to overwrite the MBR, and GAG just caused more problems.
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Jk. Yeah, trying to get used to the terminal. I already knew two commands from irc and they work on it.
