Default Re: Need help with partitioning for dual install

That order? It doesn't matter, I just though it was easier that way.

The mount point just makes sure the XP install is mounted in suse, it will add an entry in /etc/fstab
and create a folder /WIN_XP in your files system and your XP partition will be mounted here. It has nothing to do with making it bootable.
There are pre-defined mount points eg: /, /usr, /home
but not /WIN_XP
You just type that manually
Remember the do not format radio button (should be do not by default though)
