I will be completing a build in the next couple of days and have decided to install Debian on my new system. However, I also need XP installed, and I am not sure which I should install on my hard drive first. I have an extra IDE hard drive I could use if I have to, but the motherboard I have (D915PBL) only has room for one IDE device, and I will have a DVD and CD-RW drive on that.
I have installed different distributions of Linux before, and you can usually setup a partition table. Is it similar with Debian? If I install Debian first, can I set up my root, swap, home (etc) partitions and leave one for Windows, or should I install Windows first and then install Debian? I don't think it matters, but I will be installing on a 120GB SATA drive that has never been used before. If I use a setup like this, will I be prompted for which partition I wish to boot to? Thanks in advance for any help. Christian -- Christian Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
