Well for one, when you re-install Windows XP, its going to re-write the boot sector and you're going to lose the GRUB boot. You'll then have to boot from some rescue media to re-install the GRUB boot record (should be a simple re-run of grub-install). > Just trying to be careful. Thanks for your help. -- Kevin J.
