Hello, I have Ubuntu 9.10 and would like to Dual-boot. I have a copy of Windows 98, I just want to use it to run my games (Older games, 2005 was latest release, I'm pretty sure it's compatible though.), and I was wondering how?


If you're wondering, yes, I will do partitions, I just need to know how.


I should have enough space on my HDD for Ubuntu, the Partitions, and 98 - I have 137.3 GBs free on my HDD.


Help is greatly appreciated.


Pictures are appreciated more.


Thanks,
ShadowsOfSillver.

On that free space install Windows and after that reinstall grub2. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling from LiveCD)

Only if you had a Live CD at hand ;)
