I want to test MultiPoint Server 2011. Currently, I have a parallel Win 7 / Ubuntu 10.04 installation with grub 2 as boot manager.
Can these two be used parallely to MultiPoint again using grub and what's the most frictionless procedure to get this setup correctly?
edit What I mean with frictionless: MultiPoint Server will certainly just like Windows 7 overwrite the MBR and thus make Grub2 unavailable. I just want to know whether there is something I can do before installation so that afterwards it is easier to restore grub then including MultiPoint, and how to restore Grub.
Also, what will happen to the Windows 7 installation? Can I include both Win 7 and MultiPoint server into the Grub menu?

I'd simply like to know what I should do before installing MultiPoint server which will certainly overwrite the boot sector and thus disable grub, and whether I can still use win 7 in parallel. – Tobias Kienzler – 2011-03-14T06:00:10.470
your original question was vague, but you clarified, so I reopened... – studiohack – 2011-03-14T06:06:42.927
@studiohack thanks, I should have thought of these details – Tobias Kienzler – 2011-03-14T06:08:36.593
