CptMurphy Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 (edited) ---Edited---Just install Linux last. It would proabably help if you partition some space before hand. For Windows, you absolutely need to have prepartitioned space before hand. Hope this helps.---Edited---I should have said that all windows requires you to have partitioned space before hand since it does not allow partitioning on a drive that's already used. In other words, if you have XP on an unpartitioned hard drive, you wont be able to install Server without formating the hard drive. Good luck.
