Hi,

I'm new to Ubuntu but have used knoppix some what. I'm getting a new Gateway laptop which comes with Vista. When I used Knoppix I used the DVD live boot so I never installed it but I know you can do a dual boot with it. What I want to do is do a multi boot system with Vista and XP and Ubuntu. Is this possible and how would I do it step by step.

P.S. my laptop will come with Vista so I will not have a full copy of Vista. I'm going to buy a full copy of XP and get a full copy of ubuntu.
