Dual-booting has always intrigued me. I dual-boot between Windows and Linux on one of my computers, dual-boot between stock firmware and RockBox on my Sansa Fuze v2, and I decided to find out how to dual-boot my Galaxy Tab 2 7.0". It took a couple days of work, but I have found one way to do so using the external SD card.
Hello all,
I am dual booting Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 7 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T410. The computer is new but it is my fourth dual-boot project. First time doing it with 7 though.
I use the Lifehacker guide to dual booting when I'm getting started with a new installation:

Hi. I new to opensuse and just installed it today. When I installed it, I used lvm to parition my hard drive and just let it do its thing. It shrunk my windows partition to 150 GB of 250 GB. I assumed it would let me dual boot just like ubuntu let me do but when I booted. It only gave me two options Desktop -- OpenSUSE 11.3 and failsafe -- opensuse 11.3.
Hello all,
I am new to Linux and Ubuntu and generally new to another OS than windows. But, I would like to dual boot Ubuntu on windows 7. I have downloaded the Ubuntu installer and I get the option to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7. Will I get a choice everytime I start up my PC to what OS I want to boot in?

I have a dual boot set up right now with Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 7. I booted into a live, loaded up GParted, and had to futz around with partition sizes, which had already been established, as I'm trying to back up and move some stuff around. Now, having completed the movement and resizing of partitions, Windows 7 displayed Error: 0cx0000225, missing device, or something along those lines.
