If I were to download the ISO's of a Linux distrobution (probably Fedora), how would I go about installing it and so I can choose which OS to load up at start-up?
Note: I only have one hard-drive and no CD Burner. Is it possible? |

you can partition your hard drive so it appers you have numerous drives.
say u have 20gb, u can designate 10gb to linux, and 10 to windows.
as for booting, most linux distros come with the option of installing some sort of boot loader.
i have GRUB installed.
when i boot up, i'm given an option of either selecting linux or windows.
pretty cool.
as for no CD burner... find a friend with one ?? |

| Since you are already downloading pirated iso's... just find a copy of "Partition Magic 8", that's what I use. Very simple interface, easy to use. |

Yeah, Fedora is free to download. :p
Simple mistake, but I may take your advice on... *cough* "liberating" that program. |
