Windows Server 2008(LOnghorn) Dual boot

[drich290195]

Im running Windows Vista at the moment and have downloaded the beat of windows server 2008 (Longhorn).

I want to give it a go but my question is how do i dual boot with vista. I have one hard disk do i need to install it on another partion will that do it. P.s whats LOnghorn like?

don't even waste a dvd burning it. you can mount the iso within vista and run setup directly from there. of course you'll need a free partition either on your current drive or another disk. make sure it's formatted as ntfs before starting. follow the on screen prompts. easy.

it's ok, bit slow to repsond when using the admin tools/wizards. but all my vista drivers worked ok. you can even enable aero which is a bit daft on a server os. i'm surprised they included it.
