If you want to expand a bit more to include multi-boot, things like compatibility of GRUB for booting Fedora, Ubuntu (incompatibility of CentOS GRUB with 256 block inodes has been problematic), hackintosh, BSD, ...; GRUB chainload to GRUB; sharing /home across different distros; etc. could be covered. So Ralph can a page be created ? /Mats ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs

I can think of one part that is file systems and filesystem drivers, like ntfs driver for Linux and ext2/3 drivers for Windows. Hmmm. There already is a page on NTFS in CentOS. Can you expand a bit on your idea? The NTFS wiki article covers how you can read Win from Linux but NOT the other way, how do you read Linux fs from Windows. And another part is how to sync favorites, emails and such independently of OS (Im unshure if this is possible, but I know that Mozilla had something going a while back). Sync them between Linux and Windows? Yeah, sounds interesting :) Ralph Well the idea was to collect tips trix that isn't covered normally in dual boot articles. Normally is the installation and grub tweaks covered, and noting after that! So my idea is to take it to the next step and collect stuff the will enhance the work experience in dual boot and to get people to easily migrate/shift between two different OS without thinking its a hassle! So is it possible to sync OpenOffice, pidgin, thunderbird settings/data between the different OS then that's what I would like to cover in this wiki page. Im against the war between the OS's and I want to make peace between them and let the user choose what OS she/he wants to use for the moment without a lot of work. ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs
