My computer has two users. So can I install two different operating system for each user?
Just like windows for user1 and ubuntu for user2?

Possible with GRUB http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/GRUB
But only if it's not a problem if one user can boot up into the other OS. ( he couldnt do anything because he has no password. )

Yes, it's possible. If you use a encryption tool with a secure bootloader like DiskCryptor, you can even password-protect one operating system and boot into an alternate operating system if the password isn't entered.

Dear people on Stackoverflow,
is it possible to set a default Outlook profile per machine, so for example that it doesn't matter which user logs in at the machine, they can only access one particular mail profile.
Thank you all for helping!
No, Outlook profiles are stored on the per user (HKCU) basis.

I am trying to replicate an ubuntu OS which is has (NAT,Firewall etc) setup.I am trying to find away to install a preconfig os or the os image in production, to avoid installing and setting up manually in each and every machine.Is there a way to solve this problem?
Thank you
Two methods come to mind--both variations on a theme. There may be other better methods that others know of, but lets at least start with the following.
Method #1. Assuming that the hardware is exactly the same between systems, you may be able to copy an install from one disk to another (or clone it using 'dd').
Method #2. If you are using virtual machines, you may have a master copy that you copy as needed (instead of identical hardware, you have identical virtual hardware).

I have written a custom command under user 'krishna' on my laptop, and now i want it to be available for other all user without redefining to each user. For now, i have defined the command in /home/krishna/.bashrc As this file exist under user krishna and work only for krishna. is there any way i can defile it globally for all users?
You can define the command in the /etc/bashrc or /etc/bash.bashrc file (which one depends on your distribution). One of these should exist on your machine.
Commands you define in your local /home/[USER]/.bashrc are only available for [USER].
Commands or aliase defined in /etc/bashrc are available for all useres

When the OS is completely corrupted, what does the computer run? How does it detect bootable devices?
The computer bios will have a list of bootable devices. It will check them in a specified order to look for a boot sector. If it finds a boot sector it will boot whatever os the boot file in the boot sector tells it to. If the os is corrupt the user will have to either repair it or tell the bios to boot from a different device.

The guest system is in Windows XP and in the monitor.
First I run savevm test which looks ok
Then i run loadvm, the system xp halted, all i can do is run system_reset in the monitor to restart the xp system.
Does anyone know why?
Here's what I found: using -rtc base=localtime,clock=vm, I can restore it. I think that the sudden jump in clock time is what freezes the OS.
Note that you can then adjust the clock inside the guest if needed.
