Hi all,
I'm about to reinstall my main office PC and I want to try something a bit different. For years I've been booting single/multiple linux distros with a single Windows (XP or Vista)
What I'm trying to set up now is a single large drive with Ubuntu (and probably some other linuxes) and every version of Windows since XP (including 32/64 bit and basic/premium/business/pro K/KN Various service pack levels etc etc)
I haven't finished the list yet but I guess this is easily over 50 versions of windows plus I may want to add some windows server versions as well.
I'd like all of the Windows version to believe that they are installed on the C Drive and not see the partitions of the other OS's.
I can't use VM's as I need the full performance. I only have space for 1x2TB harddrive as the rest of the PC is filled with a SAS array.
Any thoughts on where to start or if this is even possible?
