The real Linux distribution CDs (Red Hat, Mandrake, etc.) have HOWTO files
on them. These may not be included on the BDI CDs. Some of these HOWTO
files have VERY detailed instructions on getting specific dual-boot configurations
to work. These include the exact sequence of install steps for both installs.

Getting a dual-boot system to boot from one or the other disk is even more
complicated. There is a special option to LILO or something that allows this
to work. I think they call this chaining.

You might be able to read the HOWTO files over the web from Red Hat
or Mandrake.
