More or less, yes. Although I've heard of using loadlin to dual-boot,
I've never seen it work. There are a lot of options, but in my
experience, the most convenient and workable way to dual boot windows
and linux is to use either grub or lilo.
Why do you ask?
I want to put Linux on my WinXP system but don't want to have to
change the boot manager since I already have to go through the trouble
of repartitioning the drive... Don't you just wish there was some way
of running two operating systems on one partition...
