    Default Can I tripple boot vista + ubuntu + windows 7

    Hi I've had legal vista oem on my netbook, I made 4 partitions
    1 for vista,
    2 for ubuntu swap,
    3 for ubuntu,
    and 4 for home directory,
    I've installed ubuntu so I have now dual boot vista and ubuntu
    I heard that you can install windows 7 with daemon tools (I can launch daemon tools on vista).
    is it possible to use some partitioning program in vista to shrink home partition for ubuntu and then install in that space windows 7 from daemon tools (in vista).
    Will I have tripple boot after that ?

    There are tools in most "LiveCD" disks (such as gparted) that would allow you to resize "4"
    and repartition it.
    Getting Win7 to install without trashing what is already on disk is a question for a Win7 expert.
