I'm getting a new desktop through my university which will come installed with Windows Vista. Obviously, my first action item will be removing Vista and installing a reasonable OS. Due to the need to be up-and-running immediately with an OS that I'm comfortable with, I'll be installing Linux (probably Ubuntu). But I'd like to set-up FreeBSD also. Which of the boot managers do you suggest I use? Which OS should I install first? Since I've never set-up a FreeBSD/Linux dual-boot system, I don't know what, if any, pitfalls to avoid. I'm hoping some of you will have experience I can learn from. Any relevant advice would be greatly appreciated. TIA, Daniel
