It's possible depending upon the OS. If you are thinking about running Linux, it should be no problem.

Double boot is when one pc can have two operating systems installed at the same time. When the computer boots up, an option screen appears allowing you to choose which OS you wish to use. Triple boot is the same thing as double boot, but with three OS's.

ok first thing is do you have partition magic ?
you need to have xp already installed redude the partition that xp is on and try to have at least 20 gig of unalocated free space. then boot the system with the cd that your burned with red hat v 9.1 and follow the instructions. there is more if this much is a help |
