Re: Dual booting



Hello,

After I found goodbye-microsoft website my first question was the same
as Jonathan Harris, and I spent A LOT of time to find answer, this
information is not even availiable on wikipedia, and some websites
have misleading articles about it. I think this is Very significant
information, and it should be written somewhere on website, so more
users will be not afraid to install it!

> Installing debian on a windows system should also scare the crap out of a newbie. He will loose all his old files (including family photos), even if this "win32-loader" allows him to keep his worthless bookmarks.

Example - comment from Slashdot article mentioned in this mailing group.
