Its not a format issue.  You need to install a "boot loader". Using 6.1
you should have a program called "lilo" (LInux LOader)on your system or on
your distribution CD. Install that, follow the instructions in "man
lilo" and you should be all set to dual boot.

Quick note:
1. Make a boot diskette.
2. Boot from the diskette to be sure that it works.
3. Install (what I assume to be) windows.
4. boot from diskette and configure & run lilo.

You need to do this becuase windows will overwrite the "boot
record" where lilo stores the boot information.
