If you are having problem with the boot process which takes too long, you have to try this free software called Soluto. Soluto is a special software that will cut off the boot process extremely. With Soluto you can improve the computer’s start-up time by removing unnecessary applications from the system’s boot-up sequence.

I have attempted to remove Ubuntu from a dual boot system (Windows XP, SP3) by deleting partitions, using both the Ubuntu install CD and GParted. Neither worked for me; instead, all I did was manage to install a new version of Ubuntu each time. Now, I have 3 versions of Ubuntu and one of XP. Trouble is, I cannot boot up XP.
I recently upgraded from lucid to pangolin (LTS) and by default lots of programs (like latex which were installed from repository by me earlier) were automatically upgraded. This resulted in a time-consuming procedure. Also the resulting desktop is not what I like (this uses unity and has fixed position of launcher, to the left of terminal which is a distraction for user like me).
ok i run dual boot ubuntu and widows xp i just got a virus on my windows xp. is it possible to format only the windows xp partition leave the ubuntu intact and still have it work in a dual boot?
