I dual boot in windows XP professional and windows 7 RC, i bought windows 7 ultimate and want to install it on this rig, i want to delete the RC partition and in its place install the windows 7 ultimate, while maintaining my dual boot.

What should i do with the boot.cfg or ini or watever to ensure that all i have is windows xp and windows 7 in my boot log? and that they both work

You can just install windows 7 to your RC partition. The only thing you'll need to do after that, is remove the RC from the boot menu, which actually I don't know how to do offhand... The method of doing so changed with Vista, and ive never messed with it.
