What do I need to know before I start? XP Home is already installed and
I have no way to reinstall it, no o/s CD's are provided.
is there no i386 tree under c:\windows\ ?

Yes I see a c:\i386 directory full of cryptic file names that don't mean

6709 files taking up 896,693,633 bytes in 11 directories and
66,304,417,792 bytes free
What can I do with that?

There will
probably be choices for locating boot and grub, what is best to do there?
Any suggestions, reference material, etc. appreciated.
