Help on Tribooting,Resizing NTFS,Adding Distros to it

Code:

Resize NTFS
Delete swap
Delete FC

Now you should have Windows and a bunch of free space.
Out of the free space create 2 partitions
One for FC, one for Suse, leave both partitions unformatted.
Install FC, make sure it doesn't put swap in the partition for Suse.
It probably won't by default. Put the bootloader wherever you want.
Install Suse 9.3, using swap already created, and putting Grub on the MBR.
Suse should make an entry for both Windows and FC.
Tri-boot.[/quote]

Are these good instructions
Could you give an example of adding a distro

I don't see what this tread will acomplish, as what you just showed us is relatively easy to do and there are better ways to do it, but it's ok. No everybody wants to triple-boot FC, Suse and XP.

what's the point in this tri-boot scenario you are all harping about?
a real good tri-booting computer would be this:
win xp/ macos9 or x / linux
be kind to yourselves

what I saw was this...

good tri booting system = $$$$/$$$$/free

I think I'll stick with the penquins mines $$$$/Free/Free

I like those figures a bit more, but we know what would be king right??

say it with me now:

Free/Free/Free

Tasty.
