I am currently running WIN2k and have a separate partition for my OS, music, etc etc. I would like to install XP and Red Hat, but since some of my programs are tied into the set partitions already, I want to install XP and Red Hat on end (not the D: drive for example).

So, is it possible to triple boot and have the OSes in non-consecutive partitions? Like on the F: drive, for example?

Thanks,

Dan

It'll work fine. Thats what I do with my linux partitions. I've got win2k at the front of the drive, then my data partition, then linux.

Win9x/ME won't install at the end of the drive, since it really, really, really wants to be on the first partition on the first drive. 2k/XP and Linux (and most other OSs) don't care where they are on the drive
