Do you dual boot?

(1/4) > >>

orcpeon:
Yes/No, and if yes, with what OS's?

Me: No, I just use Linux.

Calum:
yes, winME (since it is the only system that actually can support all my laptop hardware, except win98se at a real push, and then you can't get the external CDRW to work), and also mandrake 8.2. mandrake works like a dream most of the time, but will not work with my CDRW or my modem, which are the two things i need it to work with most. I also cannot get an MSWordalike that will open my girlfriend's formatting-heavy CV, so windows stays.

I used to have red hat 7.0 and briefly had turbolinux 6.1 but neither installer would set up X correctly for my video card.

I would prefer to triple or quad boot with a non MS DOS running windows 3 on top of it, and perhaps FreeBSD as well, or Solaris maybe. I don't have enough hard drive space though, and i can't get a partitioning tool that will make all the partitions anyway. Not only that i thnk my BIOS gets confused if more than 4 partitions exist, and that's what i have with my dual boot system at the moment.

voidmain:
I no longer have to dual/triple/quad/qintuple/sextuple/septuple boot.  I have VMware.

lazygamer:
YES! I DUAL BOOT! I have XP on one harddrive, and a Libranet that needs a little more attention from yours truly, on the other.

Master of Reality:
triple boot. Slackware Redhat Win98. I plan to put anotehr one or two OSes on it though. I love having a 40GB drive.
