[luau] Dual Booting with WinXP Pro

When dual-booting with Win98, of course, Windows must be in the first partition. However, I remember this (i.e., the Windows be in the first partition) is not necessary with Win2000. Does anyone know whether I can put WinXP Pro in a non-first partition?

Just got a copy of Red Hat 8.0 Bible from Barns Noble. This books has been written and re-written at least half a dozen times, and, as a result, is quite good. Obviously, even with more than 1,000 pages, no books with a such general scope can cover detailed info. But for introduction,

A friend of mine developed a system which runs Linux thin clients on a Win2000 server. He couldn't sell even a single copy and very quickly went out of business. Why? Most private Windows users don't have to pay for their software (which either came with the machine or is pirated). But this
