I hate dual booting. But I have MacBook that I dual boot between OSX and XP. Well, I have XP installed, I think I've used it like 3 times.

Yeah, I only use XP for my TV tuner. Once I'm done watching what I want, I reboot back into OSX.

/me Wishes he has a Macbook.

Do you use Bootcamp to dual boot? Isn't Bootcamp still in beta? I heard parallels for Mac was very good.

Thanks SSP. Will give it a try right now.

Thanks cloudstrife, for some reason I had it in my mind that Kubuntu needed to go on first, and that XP went on after. That is good news because I have a good ghost image of XP for my linux test box that I can spring off of without having to reinstall.

If this happens in the future, and it will if you install xp or vista over linux, download the ultimatebootdisk. It has Grub install disk and you can have it automatically set up your dualboot. I had to do this after installing vista.
