i have a 250gb internal hard drive on my laptop. around 230gb is usable. My system is dual booted with ubuntu 10.10 and windows xp. i split the internal hard drive into 3 partitions, One is 170gb for windows xp, the second is for the ubuntu partition around 60gb and the third is for the ubuntu EXT partition.
My question is that I currently have a 2tb external hard drive, if i create 4 partitions on the external hard drive with One partition being 1.8TB just used for storage data and basiclly using it as a regular external hard drive. Then if i create 3 extra partitions, one 170gb, and one 60gb and another partition for the windows xp, ubuntu, and EXt partition respectively and then use Easus partition manager to copy is respective OS partition on my laptop's internal hard drive to their respective external hard drive partition, WOULD I BE ABLE TO BOOT windows xp and ubuntu normally, similar to booting from the laptop's internal hard drive, but instead from the external hard drive?
