Hi Anth:

I would recommend that you first create the linux native and swap partitions 
using fdisk or Partition magic. Partition magic is very easy to use, I do! 
Then reboot from CD-ROM (if  your bios supports that). Else run the cd-rom 
from dos, else use linux floppy disk for installation.
The cd-rom has plenty of documentation, I would read that first!
Any problems, let me know!

-Vishal.
