Hi , Can anyone please help me out with the steps to dual boot Windows 7 and Fedora or for that matter any other distro. I don't want to edit grub and screw up my MBR ( I found this article on lifehacker but I would prefer a simpler way) I already have Windows XP and Windows 7 dual booting on my PC. Will simply installing Linux in a new partition do the trick ( I mean will Windows 7 boot manager take care of it.. It looks like easyBCD to me ? ) Any help is appreciated
it's easy just install windows first then create a partition for linux and when installing make sure to install on that partition and the bootloader should automatically detect both operating sytems and you chose which to run on boot
I think Ubuntu will be the most straight forward. It will take care of the grub loader automatically.
