Grub versus Boot Manager

[cj pangilinan]

if you want PMBM, installed it in WinXP. if you want Grub, install it
in linux, you can view the documentation of it in linux by typing

man grub 

at the command line. that documentation is enough to understand grub.
install it in MBR. for the configuration of PMBM modify it in WinXP.
