Anyone with enough computer expertise to figure out how to make a phone call on a data phone could probably add a Linux partition to an existing Windows computer.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be as easy doing it the other way around since you have to recover the linux boot record after it is erased by Windows.
Is there a set of step by step instructions to do this for a linux beginner? The only major modification I've made is to add dual boot between the default kernel that was installed by the Ubuntu cd and "rtai" real time kernel(which for some reason doesn't work with my wireless, but otherwise fine).
