Re: [orca-list] Ubuntu 10, and partition problems

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel shellworld net>]

This is why dual boot systems with windows being one of the operating 
systems is a bad idea.  Windows will not keep its grubby mitts off of any 
of your computer resources.  It may not necessarily take adverse action 
immediately, but sooner or later you get to be a Microsoft meal.  That's 
why interchangeable drive sleds are a good idea with only one operating 
system in the computer at one time are a good idea, thank you very much.On
