- do whatever partitioning you want with whatever you like- it makes no 
difference
- install Windows first
- Install Linux
- have a  .conf file of whatever flavor you like- lilo or grub soesn't 
matter. edit it so that the bootloader sees the windows partition.
also- fwiw- I just built a win2k(fat32)/rh9 dual box, and discovered 
that grub saw and already points at the FAT partition that I used this 
time automatically.
