Merkwürdigeliebe is on a distinguished road

Default Ubuntu 64bit -> 32bit

Currently I am dual-booting XP and Ubuntu (64-bit)

I've been trying to set up my D-Link WUA-2340 wireless adapter with ndiswrapper, and it doesn't seem that the program is runnable under 64-bit, and the wireless adapter i have can only be configured through ndiswrapper..

so, for convenience sake, I want to replace the 64-bit installation of Ubuntu with a 32-bit installation.. but can I do this without ruining my current XP installation and getting rid of my old Ubuntu installation entirely?

Default Re: Ubuntu 64bit -> 32bit

Yes and Yes. Just use the Ubuntu 32 Bit Installer CD and install it where the 64 Bit is and it wont touch XP.
