Configuring a Dual-Boot System for Windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.10
Maurice Green
Now that we have constructed our new video editing system, it is time to configure the BIOS and load the operating systems. This system will be a dual boot system using 64-bit Windows 7 and Ubuntu Linux. Additionally we will configure Windows XP in a virtual machine for running legacy programs which might not be compatible with Windows 7.
