Welcome Vista
May 15, 2007
After 5 hours of effort, I finally got Vista installed on my IBM ThinkPad R40 laptop. I had to partition my single primary disk into two (as I did not want my XP installation to get disturbed by my experiments with Vista).
In this persuit, I found a very nice tool called GParted. This is an excellent and easy to use tool to partition a disk without loosing any data on the existing partition. Though partitioning does not always works that smooth, I could get my 40 GB disk partitioned in exactly 10 minutes.
Vista is pretty cool. I enabled IIS 7 and will try to experiment with it in coming days.
