I ordered 5 dell mini 10v's to be delivered to my brother in laws home so he can give 3 of them to my niece, nephew, and daughter for Xmas presents before they go on vacation to England. The other two are for my brother in law and myself. The laptops get delivered tomorrow to him, with XP loaded. Because they will be leaving in a couple of days and we dont have time to mess around I am hoping someone here can either give a detailed instructions to dual boot SL and XP. I would prefer to leave the XP install that is on the mini's as is. Then install SL....can someone Pretty Please, with sugar on top, give clear and simple directions for doing a dual boot install.....We have already installed SL on two dell mini 10v's, but never attempted the dual boot as explained above. The reason I ask for a simple guide is I need my brother in law to do this install prior to leaving so he can ship my mini to me before he leaves the states.....Any help will be highly appreciated!!! Thanks, Jeff |
