1. a new mandrake just came out, i hear that's good. I always stick with
redhat because it's popular.
2. ... for dummies series is a great start.
3. partition your drives in half, install XP, then linux. Choose to install
a boot manager like grep when you install linux. You might have to partition
your linux drives by yourself in the linux setup, as it prefers to have a
swap partition, a main partition, and sometimes more. (i did this a few
weeks ago, still don't know what i'm doing)
