I currently have a dual boot of XP and Linux. I just got a larger
hard drive and want to dual boot between
xp,linux,win2003,win2008,vista. I'm planning on placing these on
logical parititions and wanted to find out what features I need to
avoid using so I don't corrupt the other partitions? also does it
matter what order I install these in.

Thanks,
Chris

Chris, not sure what Win2003 and Win2008 are unless you are talking
about Windows Enterprise but I would install WinXP
first and Linux last.
You are not going to corrupt the other partitions by dual booting.
