Hi there,
I'm currently running Ubuntu, but I need XP for some recording/production needs. I am interested in performing a dual boot with a copy of XP I have. I have a spare external hard drive (160 gig) laying around, so instead of partitioning my internal I would like to designate my internal for Ubuntu and my external for XP. How would I go about doing this? Should I just boot it to my external, or will that wipe out my saved Ubuntu settings?
I apologize if this should be posted in the extreme noob section. :)
