Don't forget Boot Magic. And of course, if we're going to cover workstation
administration - which includes installation, methinks - then how about
covering Partition Magic, parted and other utilities for repartitioning to
allow Linux installation?

Yup, I can see lots of worms crawling out of this particular can.
Personally, my view is that corporate use of Linux on the desktop is still
mostly a matter of personal preference. I don't see many corporations
rolling out Linux desktops, and fewer still requiring helpdesk support for
Linux desktops. The vast majority of admins, therefore, are managing
servers, and that's where LPI's efforts should be focused, with low
priority placed on multi-boot systems.
