Hi all, Im looking for some advice on my multiboot project.
I have a single drive that I have partitioned off into drives for three OS installs and one storage drive.
The three partitions will hold XP, Vista 64, and 7. I have already installed XP and then install Vista 64. im waiting on 7 until I have things set the way I want them.
My goal is to have these set to where none of the OSes can see the other. Right now though, Vista can see the XP drive and vice versa. So first, I want to fix that. Secondly, Im using the Vista boot manager currently, but wanted to here any suggestions of a better third party manager to use.
Once I have the systems running, Ill be using Acronis True Image to make a backup image, but Ive heard that users run into issues restoring a multiboot system when the Vista boot manager is used to manage them, so Im looking for an alternative. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thanks.
