I tried to improve my tutorial by introducing changes as I always did since years ago,  but being the new maximum total size 512 kB only the initial lines of the modified text can appear.

I  hope system owners find soon a solution to this problem.

Thank you very much to all of you for the appreciation you have had for my work.

Best wishes

Hi,

I've found an easy solution for this: the old text has been replaced by a link so that you may download a pdf file containing the whole tutorial at the first post

(it can only be downloaded by previously identified users)

But I do have a question... Grub? Does Win 7 install grub? Or did you forget to add grub to the list of needed tools?

Hi, Spiceagent11,

As I said to Dencorso at post 3, "I was really surprised when I first noticed it. By simply installing Windows 7 in a free space (never if you install it into an existing primary partition), it creates a hidden active primary partition 0 which behaves just as grub did, and it is thanks to it that, using partition 1 or 2 you can format the other one and rebuild it by a simple copy/paste procedure, using a file manager which allows you to see and copy hidden and system files."

You can also use this grublike partition to run Linux, as explained into the tutorial.

Greetings
