Using Mint4Win - can I add a full Linux install in Partition

Post by dms05 »

I'm currently running Mint 7 from within XP using Mint4Win. That all works well.

I'd like to add another Distro (OpenSUSE) but this would have to be in it's own partition.

I'm concerned about the boot menu system allowing this configuration. Would Grub offer me Windows / Linux choice and then would accepting the Windows choice continue to offer a sub menu of XP / Mint 7?

Anyone tried?

I have not tried with Open SUSE but it works as the choice between Windows and mint4win is done by the Windows bootloader (as far as I know) and it should not be touched
