Well, I don't really understand the meaning you put behind the word "catastrophe", given that the action in subject is the installation of two operating systems. You can't reinstall OS without loosing data, so I assume that all data from hard disks is backed up, and the only resource to waste is the time. Even then, again, given due precausion you don't really risk any data loss for any of the OSs. > We all know, than M$ always inventing new traps for alternative OS. Care to elaborate?
