very soon, I will once again be dual booting. Ubuntu (Mint actually) for eye-candy and easy usage via gnome, for my family, and Arch with KDEmod for me. Windows XP may be no more soon. :D

I am not using it. Its just installed there and stays where it is - without ever being booted into. Windows is a living dummy in its partition, but I still need it because of <<<link<<<THIS>>>link>>>. :(

I remember. You enjoy making CD packages. :smile:
Instead, I just install each and everything I need, and apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade && apt-get install -d xyx the rest, and throw everything into a DVD via AptOnCD, and keep it for backup.

No..I meant such tools are great for people who are new to linux and it was developed in the first place because of power (popularity) of ubuntu :)
