    Last time I tried, on a system running XP and Vista RC2, it screwed up the MBR. Have the 1 gig partition set aside, which I assume is for the linux bootloader, but I still can't get it to work properly. Any successful installs out there? How did you manage it?

    So you found a way to do it? How about posting the solution/ what you did, or links to the info?

    I will, but I need to test a few more items out. I'm having a bit of a problem with the Vista bootloader that started after I reloaded the QDP. I don't believe the problem is related to QDP, but since I can't tell for sure I don't want to post a solution. It may take a day or two, since I've got some other issues I'm dealing with.
