Need help installing multiple linuxes on one computer?
I have installed originally Windows 7, then shrunk the partition and installed Backtrack 5 on a smaller partition and logged on fine, changed the password and confirmed everything was working great. Then I installed Xubuntu on another partition (3 total so far), but the Grub 2 boot menu only shows the Backtrack or Windows as options and also when I now try to access Backtrack it says my password is incorrect? (I tried entering the one I always use and also the default, still not working)
Please help me configure this.

The easy way is to install grub for dos from a puppy linux live cd.
or
install grub legacy from puppy cd, Grub 2 sucks and is complicated to use. old grub is easy even to boot windows.
I run windows vista, 7, 4 puppy linux, ubuntu, mint and ting core on the same pc.

What people seem to not understand is how to install Linux. If you want Xubuntu, so badly, then you should delete Windows 7, and put Xubuntu on your hard drive. It's easier to install one operating system versus setting up a dual boot, or multi boot on a computer.
