Co- linux runs while vista running ...a full bodied linux ...may practice driver development immediately after boot..no partitioning ,no shutdown reboot required.

the process to install the co-linux is outlined as following:
--Download co-linux intaller exe :small one may be 2mb use ID
Manager.exe to download,from the colinux sourceforge site
---it will prompt for the filesytem image download...
--select c:\coLinux as path
--in the default....Xml file change the paths for img file


if in tht directory img file [>1Gb] is not there [mycase]
then manually download the selfextracting rootfile system,Use IDM

i downloaded Fadora ..6..exe
extract to c:\colinux
will give a  img file
---now edit Start-Fedora-6.bat  and give proper path for image like
c:/coLinux/...img
save and run the bat file from command prompt

--DONE!

now to get the  gcc  use
