Boot windows installation within a partition?

Damnit, I knew thats what you wanted with your first post! I deleted my post because JMCSLOB confused me lol.


Hm, if you Follow this guide (Replace words "flash driive" with 160GB hard drive) How to Create a Bootable Windows 7 or Vista USB Drive for both partitions and then to do a dummy install of windows 8 on the last part of the HDD it should give you the option to boot Windows 7/8 Installer or boot into windows 8.
Edit: On step 4 you will want to make sure you size the partition correctly... or you can use the windows gui tool in control panel.


Once you get that far you can just delete windows 8 from the boot menu using MSCONFIG and delete the partition.

 

Boot windows installation within a partition?

Hello guys.. It is possible to boot windows setup using a single disk (4GB flash drive).. so now I am thinking how to do it on a 160GB HDD? I still use mg 160GB for school projects, which is really not big of a space in the drive..
My plan is:
To have 3 partitions in the hard drive
- Windows 7 x64 installation
- Windows 8 x64 installation
- and the rest goes to my school files

Now, I don't know much about booting, but all I know is you CAN boot a drive, but not sure if you can boot a partition.
That's what I'm asking *Big Grin Is is possible?? How?
