Hi, I'd like to install Windows 7 and fc17 on my laptop that has two
disks. I'd like to use one disk for Windows and one for Linux.

Should I just install Windows first, then Linux?

How do I replace the Windows boot loader with grub and still be able
to boot Windows?

Thanks,
Alex

Hey Alex,

Install Windows first. Then install Linux. If you try to do it the other way around Windows will wipe the boot loader. Windows has no concept of dual booting.

Install Windows on what it sees as the C:/ drive.
