Wanted to double check before XP install dualboot
I am currently running Suse 9.1, and for a few reasons I might need to install XP. Most sites I found said I have to install XP first, so if Linux is already there (goodbye). Well, Suse has its own partition right now and there are 3 other partitions that I can wipe clean or give XP 2 of them.
I was thinking that if I install XP on its own partition and it can have the mbr then I should still be able get to the bootup files for suse right? Is there something I am missing here? Are there any partitions (swap) that need be there for linux?
Just curious on things I should think about before I went down this road and wiped the whole computer.
