duelbooting ubuntu gnome with win7

[Hadi]

Hi!

The installation wiki is very comprehensive. thanks for that.
I think I'm going to use Ubuntu one for backing up. it sounds like drop 
box, except more compatible with Ubuntu itself.

Thanks man. get some rest, i  hope the pain goes away soon.  it sucks 
specially if when theres lots of typin to do.
