Filisko:
Hello,

I would like to know how to install CorePlus in my HDD without deleting my Windows XP and having a Grub on the booting to select wich OS I want to start.

Thanks.

Hi: There is a lot of info in the TCL wiki. If you have XP already installed you have to make room on your HD to create another partition or two. How to do this, just google.
Then you install TCL to the new partition and install grub or grub2 or grub4dos. Grub2 should see the XP OS on your drive and include it into its grub.cfg file.
You also may consider to run TCL in Virtual Box from the XP OS.

Could you pass me some links?

You can also use TinyCore without changing partitions in any way! If your XP is using FAT, then it is extremely simple. If however you're using NTFS, it is a bit more involved but not impossible. I did it before. If you are interested in not changing your partitions, and just install TC on your XP partition, and just add a boot-loader, then just say it, and I'll try and give directions :)
