I have new HD 160GB and my main OS for now will be XP sp3, but I would like to install W7 as well.
Wish list:
I like to have option to boot in to OS of my choice
My main OS will be XP sp3 for now, W7 later if I like it
How should I setup partitions on my HD, (how many, how big, NTFS or FAT32, prime, active etc.)
What OS should I install first? In what partition?
My idea for size: W7 20Gb,XP 30GB, Data (docs, dbase etc.) 110GB
I also have 2nd hard drive for backup the first (mirror or just data)
Be able to easy delete either OS in the future and stay with the one I like and recover space.
Be able to boot in OS of my choice (HD seeing and recognizing bot OS at the start up)
Use KISS explication if you can. (1,2,3,4 etc.)
TIA
