So, as you can tell from the title, I have Windows 7 OEM. If it wasn't for Maya and game compatibility, I probably would be using straight Ubuntu. Since I only have one try to install Windows, I want to make sure I know exactly what to do. First of all, which do I install first? Does it matter? Do I have to create the partitions for both when I install the first one?
Basically what I'm going for is a W7 partition used almost solely for Maya (a little gaming too) and a Linux partition for literally everything else. This is my first build so although I've poked around and theoretically have an idea what I'm doing, I'm still not sure about the exact steps.
Oh, and one last thing, where should I go to see if my parts are compatible with Ubuntu?
