Set an 80286 based machine next to your Vista box. Oh, and you have to be
ambidextrous.

You don't.

Why not, why can't I just have two partitions?

I can assure you that if you have hardware that supports
Windows Vista, that same hardware is not supported by
the obsolete, ancient Windows 3.1 operating system.
In other words, it will never install.

You can have all the partitions you want, but it won't change the fact
that you're a moron.

works fine with grub.

in fact, it works fine with lilo.

Why not just run Windows 3.1 in a virtual machine using VPC? Then you can
run it right on your Vista desktop.

You probably won't get sata drivers for 3.1, but virtually everything
else could be made to work. That being said you're better off running such a
tiny OS in a virtual machine.

Damn Nonny, I didn't come here to get insulted but to find something out. Why
don't you just leave, your not wanted, like Adam.
