Hi guys,
I'm hoping someone can help me. This might seem a bit of a nooby question to some, but I'm a bit cautious about what I'm trying to do.
Right, I currently have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my laptop. I have a W7 install disk and I want to install it and achieve a dual boot with my Ubuntu install. Now unless I'm mistaken, there's no option to do this on the W7 installer, so if I run the W7 install it will likely wipe my Ubuntu install - which I do not want.
What is the best way to achieve a dual boot in this situation? I have tried VirtualBox, but it doesn't achieve what I want to do. I need a full Windows install.
Thanks in advance.
