Quad Boot With Windows, Sun Java Desktop System, and the Solaris Operating System

January, 2005

This reader-submitted article shows you how to do a quad boot with Windows, two instances of the Java Desktop System, and the Solaris 10 Operating System.

A detailed table covers preparation; installing the Solaris 10 OS; installing Java Desktop System, Release 2; and completion. A list of related references is also offered.

You may want to try a quad boot because it enables you to continue using your Linux machine while you are testing or exploring new features in Linux or installing the next release of the Java Desktop System. By having two instances of Linux, you can make mistakes with one and still have a safety net."
