So here are my questions:

Can this edition be dual booted?

I already have ubuntu installed, can I keep it that way?

I want to install the .img from a flash drive, will that work, or do I need to find a dvd burner?


Any other useful links about dual boot would be great, but I can search for that.

Im curious too on this. Sorry I dont have any answer.

I actually had windows server 2008 installed already (not R2, the vista kernel based one), and I installed ubuntu using the guided install, and it still boots straight to windows.

I know you can do it, I just dont know how ><

*EDIT*
I donloaded EasyBCD and addded the linux option in there, And it seems that I can boot to linux now, but all I see is a terminal ><

You may need to edit the boot options within bcd to include something like startx .
