  Yes you can.  However, if Windows occupies the lower 4 gig of the hard
drive, then linux may not boot except with a boot floppy if you install
LILO, the linux loader program.

  In that case, I recommend you get Partition Magic, which comes with Boot
Magic, and should allow you to boot linux from wherever it is on your hard
drive.
