Yes I have Windows installde on the same system and it works fine.
Yesterday while I was doing "uname -r > /tmp/info" thing, my machine
freezed. So I had to hard reset the machine. At start up there war some
thing like : Press Ctrl-D for blah blah...../ Run fsck manually etc. I don't
know what this means and couldn't boot Linux. So I had to go for a new
installation.
