Hi guys

Im trying to install windows XP on a MacBook as requested by a client and i've seen quite a few "packageS" that can help me. mac boot camp, parralel, etc..

but before going into details of these packages, i was wondering if, i could it is similar to windows dualbooting..

basically, the idea is to create a separate partition (fat32 for mac and win compatibility), install xp there, and modify the boot sequencing etc etc.. if that's the case i can do this manually.. right? or is there something special with it?

coz it's basically an INTEL system, using a HARD DRIVE that works with intel or macs.. it's just that tehre's an OSX installed..

am i getting the right ideas here?
