Almost all new *nix distros configures grub automatically as they detect existing operating systems and make the grub entries. Hardly anything for the user to do.I do think so! its a real pain to configure GRUB for newbies lol

when there are 2 or more NTFS partitions it uses existing ones, what happened me was that i formatted the other NTFS(which had xp on it, but win7 was using it :S) The bootmgr is missing now ...thats some MS for you! lolekanath ettha.... ehenam karanna thiyenne mama wage ubuntu, win 7 wage karaganna eka(pitatha opaya witharayi ithin win 7 wage karaganna puluwan

hence my question if MS is trying to stop/discourage the use of multiple OSes.its different with win7 thats the case win7 has another separate partition for its boot manager(dont ask me why) but it haswhen there are 2 or more NTFS partitions it uses existing ones, what happened me was that i formatted the other NTFS(which had xp on it, but win7 was using it :S) The bootmgr is missing now ...thats some MS for you! lol

but how good is win7 really ? Have they redone the kernel memory management completely to match the unix model ? does it have thread management at the same level of unix ?of cause man they cant fight back and win but atleast it stops the company from making shit software -- they are competing and still acting dirty. I mean when Bill stepped out it just suddenly got better! win7 was awesome but here comes MS's dirty *ss work![]()
thnx bro!!put COMPIZ and a suitable window manager(i use emerald)
sudo apt=get install compiz
sudo apt=get install emerald
sudo emerald --replace
that'll run emerald

they have redone the library loading architecture to the kernel and other windows programs that are the bases of virus attacks.
they have improved since XP alot but can't say it matches Unix model cos Unix is older than Windows and Unix main executables were written mostly by universities ..same goes for Linus too this is his lil project nee
so i think it is more solid, actually the solidity can be measured when the OS is challenged by new technologies, for instance Unicode at the early stages of Linux there wasn't a clue about 2 byte characters but it survived the transfer and is very successful -- ofcause unicode support in Linux is higher than that of Windows even 7 has problems with Unicode implementation--still!its not a question of unix codes being older. The unix memory management model was well known when MS started working on windows. Only they didnt use because DOS didnt use it. They either had to re do DOS or start from scratch. Guess the accountants vetoed the idea of redoing the kernel and they went ahead with the DOS memory management system for windows.they have redone mem management alot i can't say whether its at the same level cos i didnt benchmark the two. Windows actually has more problems to answer in memory exploitsthey have redone the library loading architecture to the kernel and other windows programs that are the bases of virus attacks.
for example they are not allowing custom code/dlls to be loaded on to the windows sound system directly they have a separate executable that handles *alien* codethey have improved since XP alot but can't say it matches Unix model cos Unix is older than Windows and Unix main executables were written mostly by universities ..same goes for Linus too this is his lil project nee
