Hi. I'm trying to make a partion for dual booting (MS-DOS* :xd: ) on Ubuntu 9.10. Problem is, my free space is my boot sector. Any help here?

Oh, and i'm using gparted
*It's the only free windows (Me thinks...)
Already burned the DVD
MS-DOS isn't free, but FreeDOS is.
If you need a free windows, get ReactOS.
Ok, thanks
But back to the partions...

Also, I quote from wikipedia (Sorry if this proves your point, I really can't tell)

However the only versions of DOS currently recognized as stand-alone OSs, and supported as such by the Microsoft Corporation are DOS 6.0 and 6.22, both of which remain available for download via their [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSDN"]MSDN[/URL], volume license, and OEM license partner websites, for customers with valid login credentials.[/quote]
That proves my point.
Well, sorry However, if you have windows 7... Anyways, the main problem is all my free space is mounted on the ubuntu drive. No space for a partion.
Split the partition into some used, some unused space, and then format a new partition out of the space you've created.
virtualbox? that's what i do.

Couldn't before, tried the live CD and it worked... until it had an error. Once I hit apply it says "bad magic number in superblock" or something along those lines [QUOTE=mrhippieguy;20222420]virtualbox? that's what i do.[/QUOTE]
Well that just takes then 'fun' out of dual booting
