Hi.   Are you saying that If I got a new enough version of GRUB I could
install it and not worry about the whole 1024 cylinder thing?   Sadly
WIN XP makes you worry about it...  Anyway do you know where to get
GRUB?

Google is everything to everyone.
Think about it!
P.S.  Well it is isn't it?

With GRUB, you can install it normally on the linux system.
Then add the windows XP entry to grub.conf:

title WinXP
        rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1

where (hd0,0) is the harddrive and partition, respectively.
