Could someone please tell me how to have Windows XP and Windows 7 in bootcamp with Mac OS X Lion? I have read so many different ways to do it but don't know which one to use.
You can install Windows 7 but not with Boot Camp. (You can not use the Boot Camp assistant because it will not create more than one partition.) You would need to use Disk Utility and probably the rEFIt boot manager. There are plenty of instructions on how to do that.
One way to have Windows 7, XP, and even Vista on your Mac is to use virtual software such as Fusion, Parallels, or even the free VirtualBox. That would require quite a bit of hard drive space and lots of system memory though.
