    Sure, Ted. I'll let you know. It might be a while though as I am considering starting from scratch and installing the OSes into their own individual partitions. Before I do that, I need to ensure that I have got the latest Sevice Packs for them, all the latest drivers for my hardware and, in the case of XP, a floppy containing the drivers for the storage controller as I am going to be using RAID0 again. Whatever happens, it should be an interesting experience.

    Thanks, just post back at this thread as I'll keep an eye on it.

    As the title says, I am curious as to how many OSes people have installed at the same time on a single machine. Currently, I have 4, but I hope to increase that to 7 by installing Ubuntu 9.10 32-bit and 64-bit and also XP Professional 32-bit (when I get round to it, that is).
    How big is your HD?
    I have 2 500GB drives arranged as a single RAID0 array, giving me 1TB. :)

    Nice. How many GBs do you give each OS?
