    Hi,

    my Acer One A110L (1GB RAM, 8GB SSD & 16GB SD Karte) runs with Linpus Linux (also in future)

    Now I would like to boot XP from an external Trekstor DataStation microdisk 120 GB USB 2.0 Storage (if necessary)

    What is the best approach (Boot Manager, Partion, ????)

    Experiences, Tips, Feedback - Thanks in advance :)

    I think the One supports direct booting from a USB hard drive, so you shouldn't need any additional boot manager.

    But how you _install_ Windows on an external hard drive, that I really don't know.
