A real question. Yes, I am triple booting along with Ubuntu. Well, actually I use DOS also, so I have 4 operating systems at my boot menu. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) Quote from George Ankner: If you knew as much as you think you know, You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew! |

| Re: Mandriva tribble boot with Vista and XP make at least three partitions ( one for xp, one for vista, one for Linux ) first install Xp, then Vista, then your Linux - by the time Linux asks you about the Loader : install the Linuxloader (lilo or grub) to the MBr of the Harddisk You should then be able to boot all three systems. Tested with Novell Enterprise Desktop 10, Suse Linux 10.2 Beta, Mandriva 2007 and SimpleMEPIS 6. all without any issue working fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "MicroFox" <-> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:%23KSWU4KDHHA.4740@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Has anyone tried this? thanks > > > Any pointers? > |

Let us know how it goes. |

| Re: Mandriva tribble boot with Vista and XP At last someone identified my typo correctly.. lol Scotty on that episode claimed to have transported the tribbles to the klingon spaceship.. they never said what happened after.. the klingons transported the tribbles back in time to earth 2006.. to Redmond... and inserted them into the Vista code.... THAT explains why Vista so slow and buggy... :-) "Rock" <rock@nospam.net> wrote in message news:%23H6RfdODHHA.3396@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > "MicroFox"wrote > >> Has anyone tried this? thanks >> >> Any pointers? > > Is that "tribble" as in the original Star Trek episode titled, "The > Trouble with Tribbles?

| Re: Mandriva tribble boot with Vista and XP yes triple booting works great as along as you install your Linux Os last that way grub will find your vista bootloader "MicroFox" <-> wrote in message news:%23KSWU4KDHHA.4740@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Has anyone tried this? thanks > > > Any pointers? > |
