Doing a XP reinstall on a laptop, using Toshiba's-XP, I've had XP reformat the intire harddrive NTFS and totally wipe out linux. I don't know if it will be a problem on an update. If it leaves Linux on the harddrive it will probably overwrite your MBR. Use you boot cd and repair. Rich On Sun January 18 2004 4:47 am, Stephen P. Molnar, Ph.D. wrote:
I currently have two computers, a tower and a laptop, which dual boot v9.0 and Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional using the GRUB boot loader. I'm getting ready to upgrade W2000 to Windows XP Professional and would like to know what alligators are out there in the swamp just waiting to rise up and nip me? In particular, am I going to foul up anything with regard to booting?
Thanks in advance.
