Ross, I have the same system as yours. What I do is have Mandiriva on one
drive and Windows on another drive. I go into CMOS and enable and disable
the drive I wont to boot from. This works very well and I have used it for a
few weeks now. Hope this will help.

All,
I am interested in the Mandriva Discovery Linux OS. I would like to dual
boot with XP_64 on a second HD. The system I am running is a Dell
Precision 490 with the following specs:
IntelXeon 5130 CPU @ 2.00 Ghz
2.00 Ghz, 2.0 GB Ram
WinXP_64
I believe that Mandriva Discovery is compatible, but I would like to
confirm before I purchase. I am new to Linux and dual booting, but I
have done some fairly substantial research on setting up the boot loader
to recognize both XP and Linux. I just need to know that this version of
Mandriva is compatible with a 64 bit Dell system.
Thanks,
Ross

is there any reason you could not download mandriva 1 before purchase?
