Linux

The other day I was trying to dual boot my system with partition magic. So I did it, install fedora 2 on it and that works out fine. I reboot after everything is set up and find out I can't switch to winblows because linux took the /boot om the hard drive. Partition magic would've put it back to normal...but unfortunately I had to do the get partition magic free on dc++ thing (*looks innocent*) and I couldn't burn it so it would boot. So now I'm screwed with djing till xmas when I get my new decks and cdj's. Only thing I can do now is hope my uncle has the CD for partition magic and I can borrow it.

In the meantime, I am looking for a way to run winblows programs on Linux, or some Linux Djing software.

Theres a Windows Emulator you can get for Linux, and you install windows into that and run it like normal from Linux, but its crap with games, and you need a FAST computer in order for it to run good, but you plus side is when winblows fucks up, you just close it and open it again.

You can get VMWare or download Wine.

Hey thanks...I think i'll go with Wine

From what I'm reading, you can use winblows apps just from linux?
