Simple way to try out vista on a hack..

First of all I am sorry for making another dual boot topic but with so many guides available I'm getting little confused. Especially when most guides tell you to install windows before osx.

Secondly, here is a list of partitions on 320GB main drive:

 

1: Apple_HFS Tiiger 20.0 GB disk0s1 (main osx86 installation)

2: Windows_NTFS 15.0 GB disk0s2 (empty)

3: Apple_HFS Data 253.1 GB disk0s3 (for data)

4: Apple_HFS Bizz 10.0 GB disk0s5 (for temp osx86)

 

What is the simplest way to install vista to disk0s2 without re-installing tiger and preferably use darwin bootloader?

Will something like this work:

 

1. Install vista (should I make vista's partition active before installing?)

2. Should I fix MBR and make tiger's partition active again?

3. Use darwin bootloader for dual boot?

 

Thanks!
