Create either a seperate partition using FIPS, or use LNX4WIN.

Then use LILO (GRUB) to switch betwee partitions

Mandrake will let you partition the drive when you're using it, but if you have everything already dedicated, you'll probably have to delete something first.

Once you have this done, however, it's a fairly easy process, and Linux will install thebootloader for you. I have XP, 2000, and Mandrake on one system right now. If you have further problems, feel free to e-mail me at david.palsen@kraft.com, and I'll be happy to help you out.
