I am about to install a dual boot system to cope with XP and SUSE Linux on a decent machine wit 2 separate 20GB hard disks. Can anyone recommend solid dual boot software that really works ?

I will also hopefully be installing an internet link to both systems of the same machine and I have heard that Linux can be a bit tricky with regard to the modem hardware and software it uses etc. My present kit is an Orange Livebox 8MBPS running through one of my Ethernet connections - the livebox itself looks like it's made by INVENTEL model DV4210-WU. This means absolutely nothing to me but it works on XP at the moment and I'm hoping to use the same hardware for the SUSE Linux. I suppose I could always have a fallback position of using the Internet from XP only but this is far from ideal as I eventually want to get rid of M/Soft Windows for good. Just need the experience of building Linux and getting confident with it first.

I also have a TOMPSON ADSL modem rated at about 2 MBPS which works from the USB port.

Many thanks - hope all you geniuses out ther can help.

Hi TonY,

Have them move the thread over to the Unix/Linux forum. Look for any message posted by saikee or use the Search this forum link to search for posts by saikee in the Unix/Linux forum. In saikee's signature are links for installing Linux and keeping Windows untouched.
