Hi..
But that HowTo takes help of some othe utilities not provided by
any of the operating system in question and I want them not to use
any except the ones which are provided by these OSes.
Moreover I wanted to make this HowTo a detailed one covering the
details of Partioning the disk, installing the OSes, the order
being immaterial.
In the mean time I have also sent a mail to the concerned
person.
What do u suggest?
Regards,
Abu.
