When I try to install Vista Beta 2 (mounted as a virtual drive), I get:

You must make the following changes before installing Windows

Close Windows installation and contact the device manufacturer for updated driver software for these devices:

Your computer is not compatible with Windows Vista, so Windows Vista cannot be installed.

Now when I run the Advisor Tool, it gives me an error saying that my HDD only 3GB space, and I am unable to install Vista.

(Since I use Linux a lot, I've put my HDD/partition structure like this)

hda1 = 10GB ntfs (c:\) - Where I currently have XP

hdb2 = 20GB ntfs (s:\) - where I want to install Vista to

hdb3 = 10GB ntfs (F:\) - storing the downloaded .iso

I want it so I have a dual boot between XP and Vista, I just need to overcome this (Im guessing its caused by the lack of c:\ space) HDD error.

Any ideas on how to make it use hdb2?
