Is it safe to have Mandrake (9.2) and Windows XP on the same computer?
Is it safe to have Mandrake (9.2) and Windows XP on the same computer?
I don't want there to be any chance of losing files in the Windows partition.
Also, even if it is safe, I'm looking for advice on things I should and shouldn't do to make sure Linux won't affect Windows and Windows won't affect Linux.
I'm currently using Bootit NG as my partition manager. I tested it on a Windows 98 computer and it worked fine at making, copying, deleting, sliding, imaging and formatting those partitions, but the partitions managers in Mandrake and Windows seem like they might be conflicting with it.
I also want to have 2 seperate Wndows partitions on the same comp (one for games and the others for working). I've had a lot of trouble trying to get this to work due to confliction problems above.
If you have any advice to give me that would be appreciated. Also, I want to know the diff between Mandrake 9.1 and 9.2. Maybe it makes more sense just to use 9.1?
