Already Partitioned Windows
I started with windows xp as my OS. I then downloaded Ubuntu Linux and have been using that as my primary OS. The problem is i would like to use virtualBox, but since i already have a partition of XP i dont want to have to install it again, is there anyway i can just have VirtualBox just use the XP i already have????
