[CLUG] dual boot nt/rh

[CLUG] dual boot nt/rh

Short answer: yes.

Longer answer: If you wish to use lilo or grub install linux (or at least
lilo/grub) last.  Alternatively you can use nt's bootloader to boot
linux, but it takes a bit more work.

I'm gonna take this opportunity to plug grub
(http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html).  While still in
alpha/beta?, it's sooo customisable, though it's a bit of a pain to
get installed.  At present it takes quite a bit of reading to get up
and running, but if you're trying to do anything awkward with
partitions then it's probably worth it.
