One of my managers at work (this is a non technical place)(Panteras) has been trying to first dual boot xp/vista and then when he had that set up, he was going to try xp/vista/ubuntu.
My(His) question is that during installation and setup of the bootloader will it pick both the xp and vista partitions and put them into GRUB.
Ive told him it should, but he wants more convincing
The setup he is trying is 2 hard drivers vista on one and xp/ubuntu(eventually) on the other
Right now he can boot vista and read xp from vista
Right now is trying to use easyBCD
Thanks
I have the answer, for a fee. If he wants to do it but wants to make you do all the work, take my fee, tack on some surcharge, and pass the cost onto him.
actually besides asking the question on here and giving my opinion on it, I haven't done a thing
I have the same setup on my desktop. Yes it works. What you do is install XP, then install Vista, then install Ubuntu. When you boot up into your computer, GRUB will show up with the option to boot into linux or windows. If you choose windows, the windows boot loader shows up with the option of booting into "Vista" or "an earlier version of windows" (xp).
Thanks

I don't ever recall any rule like that. You can't just make one up like that. The only rule that has been in place are anti-spam rules, which is not the category of my offer.

I know this thread is nearly a year old, and I apologize in light of that fact, but lol.
