The only real gotcha is:  install the Windows partition first (after
any repartitioning) since Windows always overwrites the MBR which would
render anything you had setup to boot from lilo or grub unusable. 
Otherwise, if Windows is installed later, you'll need a rescue disk to
restore the operation of lilo/grub.
