(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); In this tutorial we will be tri booting with
1. Windows 7
2. Ubuntu
3. linux mint

First of all download winrar if you dont already have it.
Second download the iso files for the OS.

ubuntu - You must login or register to view this content.
linux mint - You must login or register to view this content.

Once their downloaded make 2 folders, one called "ubuntu", the other "linux mint"

put the .iso file for the OS in the corresponding folder.

ubuntu - ubuntu
linux mint - linux mint

now right click both the .iso files and hit "extract here"
Once their are both extracted 100% click one of the folders ex: ubuntu
find wubi, and start it. (it may give you error just keep hitting cancel)
Once there just hit ubuntu, 17GB, and C drive.
Continue . . .

Wait like 5 minutes in the installation
Reboot computer, and hit enter on ubuntu
( it will install, it takes like 10minutes )
now you have ubuntu :y:

restart computer and hit windows (not ubuntu)
Once loaded go on desktop and open the folder "linux mint"
Now instead open "mint4win.exe"
Do the same as you did wubi
continue . . .

wait till done installing the reboot computer
now you should see
    
* windows 7
* ubuntu
* linux mint


hit linux mint, and wait for install (10 minutes)

do all the updates etc. now you have 3 operating systems on 1 pc!!!

Best boot up is to install TinyXp Rev09 over everything, then install a Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop over the top, it will make a bootup selector as default, these two OS are what I find best for dual booting, tri-booting is pretty pointless.
