Hey there.
In a few days my new laptop is going to be coming in and I'd like to set up three operating systems. It's already comes with Windows 7 on it, and I'm going to slap Xubuntu 12.04 on there as my work OS, but I'd like to add FreeBSD 9 as my "play around," OS.
As far as I know, there are probably two partitions when it comes in; Windows 7 and recover. I'm not sure which order I should install Xubuntu and FreeBSD in, or which boot manager I should use (GRUB)?
I've only installed FreeBSD in virtual machines or systems where I could use the entire disk. And in the past I screwed up my computer's partitions horribly.
I already searched this sub-forum to find any answers and I didn't find them too helpful or that easy to understand. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!
