Post subject:  Triple booting kubuntu, xp and vista

Hey. I installed kubuntu on top of a XP installation a while back. In the installation my hard drive got partitioned and GRUB got installed so that I could boot XP or linux. I just 'obtained' vista...

How would I go about installing all three OS's?

The only way I can think atm is to make a partition for vista and install it to that, then change the GRUB config file within linux to include vista (as I have done before to change XP to my prefered opperating system and to only show the grub menu for a few seconds).

The only problem with this I reckon is that installing Vista will get rid of the GRUB menu and boot straight into vista, not allowing me to change the GRUB config....

Sooo, anyone no any other way of doing it?
Thanks for any help... :)

when i did it....i installed windows xp first, then linux, which added grub, then vista....what you end up with is a double boot selection - first is grub saying windows or linux, then you get the windows one saying xp or vista
