Hi,
I just got a new machine with a 120 GB hard drive. I want to install
Windows 2000 Server and RedHat 9.0 and be able to share files between
them. What is the best way to do this? How should I partition my hard
drive? Which OS do I install first?
Also, is there a way to switch between two coexisting on the same hard
drive OSs without having to reboot? Say, pressing a sequence of keys
would switch between OSs.
Thanks.
