   I currently have Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft) installed as a single boot on my   
   computer.  I love Ubuntu vs. Windows.  My computer is faster, doesn't have   
   random errors, lockups, etc.  I want to keep Ubuntu as my primary OS, but   
   need to add Windows XP for several games and work related applications   
   that will not run on Linux (Active Directory, Flight Simulator X, etc.)    
      
   I'm wondering if it is possible for me to add a dual boot install of   
   Windows XP to my current Ubuntu install.  I have a second hard drive that   
   has a full working install of Windows XP on it.  Is this possible to do?
