If your C drive is NTFS, you'll need a 3rd party boot manager. I use BootIt
Next Generation, www.bootitng.com. Its a full fledged boot and partition
manager, allowing you to switch OS's easily, hide them and their drives from
each other, and customize your boot setup in a large number of ways. It
also includes a full partition management suite that's very impressive for
the price.
