I really don't know if Windows supports booting from a logical partition, and I don't want to take the time to test it. sda5 is my /boot sda6 (lvm) has swap, root, usr, var, home, and so on... sda7 and up are ubuntu, rxart, and others. -- Norberto Bensa Cel: 011-5654-9539 Ciudad de Buenos Aires, Argentina
