LOL , after reading more such stories one of the first things i did was
mount my main windows partition read only and set up a separate fat
partition as a half way house between the 2 Operating Systems, seems i
didnt really need it as havent booted into Windows since:).

 I have recently migrated from Windows to the linux environment.

I remember my migration to Linux. I had installed Linux on a different

Afterwards, I had the Linux installation media right there, and I'd have
had to wait a week or so to be able to bum a stack of Windows disks from
someone. So I installed Linux again, and that was that.

I guess that's the brute force approach to migration.
