Dual boot with ASL and W2K

jumar
Hello,
for testing purposes, since I don't have a dedicated PC, I need to iinstall Astaro in a dual boot environment with W2k.
I wonder if I can do that and if special tricks are required.
I have some experiences of installing Linux & W2K in dual boot mode with Lilo.
Thank you in advance

    Hello jumar,

    sorry, but the installation routine of ASL will  completely erase your complete hard disk.

    You should either
    - have an old machine (at least PII, 8GB) to play around
    - install VMWARE on your W2K machine (you could download an Eval) and run inside your ASL installation

    Good luck,
    Karsten

    running it inside vmware would not be an option for a production firewall as emulation is just too dam slow and you have the problem with both operating systems fighting for the pci bus and cpu calls.
