1 Hi,
2 From experience I don't see this as a problem but I thought I'd ask.
3
4 1) I just installed Win XP
5
6 2) I'm going to install Gentoo
7
8 3) I plan to use grub to dual-boot
9
10 Any reason I cannot install grub at the start of the Gentoo install
11 process instead of at the end? This would allow me to check that
12 Windows is still booting before I spend hours building the machine up
13 with Gentoo only to run into some sort of an issue with the way I've
14 got Windows on the box.
15
16 OK?
17
18 Thanks,
19 Mark
