Thread: Install XP along with a dual boot of Ubuntu and Windows 7


i have dual boot running on acer aspire 5930g; windows 7 32 bit , ubuntu 9.10 64 bit. got softwares work xp. since important work, have install xp. possible install along existing dual boot structure? had installed win7 first after installed ubuntu.

please me here in tight spot. dont want run virtualbox or vmware or sort of programs cuz if have work xp, has xp alone (because of many performance dependencies)

triple boot in sequence possible?

i triple boot fine. it's possible. though started installing xp 7 reinstalling grub mbr (ubuntu there already).

advise @ resizing partitions , make space xp. install made partition, overwrite mbr unfortunately. see restoring grub2. see grub1 documentation if not karmic (article called howtogrub believe). shouldn't hard, restoring grub finicky part. also, may need write custom entries windows if doesn't detect right.

if need more specific advice reply questions.
