   I found a way to instead run WinXP from inside Ubuntu! This is basically   
   just as good. The "C drive" of Windows actually becomes a large file   
   sitting inside the linux hard disk. So it is windows running IN EXT3, not   
   really ON EXT3, as I had originally thought of above. If my first post is   
   still worth a shot though, go 4 it.   
      
   Here are links to how to run XP in Ubuntu (with fast speed(?))-
