    I bought a AAO 150 120gb with linpus installed and I have managed to install windows xp onto it but now I would like to compare the original linpus that was supplied with the one against the xp before I decide which is right for me. I now need to get the original system back onto the one to use in dual boot so I can compare the two. I can get both systems backed up using ghost and reinstalled but can anyone give me pointers on how to istall the linpus back onto the one alonside the xp. Or even suggest a guide that would explain this.

    Thanks in advance.

    Sounds like you want to dual boot XP and Linpus. Is this correct?
