Installing Ubuntu before or after upgrading from Vista to Win 7?
- by andresmh
I just got a new SSD hard drive for my thinkpad laptop. I just installed Vista with the factory CDs. On my old OS, my main OS was Ubuntu but I do want to keep Windows on a separate partition as a dual booth system. I definitely want to upgrade to Win 7 though and I will get it in a few days.
My question is: should I install Ubuntu now and then upgrade to Win 7 in a few days? or is that going to mess up with the grub (or something else)? If that is the case, then I'd rather wait to install Ubuntu until after I upgrade to Vista.
P.S. I know that probably any kind of mess done by the Win upgrade could be fixed, but I just want to avoid wasting time.
