I currently have Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.10 (via Wubi) installed on my Inspiron Duo, and I would like to install Android x86 on it as well. I have been following this guide (http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/dell-inspiron-duo/25747-dual-boot-android-guide.html) to install Android x86, but the installation guide (http://www.android-x86.org/documents/installhowto) makes it seem that the Android installer will replace the Win7 bootloader with GRUB. Is there any way to add Android to the Win7 bootloader so that I boot Windows by default and Ubuntu and Android by choice?

I would rather not use Android's GRUB loader because replacing bootloaders can be potentially hazardous and leave my computer unbootable, especially if I decide to remove Android.

How would I go about this?

Many thanks,
