I am joining this thread a bit late so sorry if this has already been mentioned.
Much advice appears to have been given, some contradictory. This is often because some of the choices are due to personal preferences. So instead of adding my opinion on the exact wiring I shall offer some slightly different advice: Have you considered contacting some local Linux people to see if they are willing to give you a hand in setting up your Dual Boot? Your local LUG (Linux User Group) is a very good place to start <http://lug.org.uk/lugs/all.php>. Some of them have what is called a "Bring A Box" meeting, where you can bring along your PC. Maybe someone will be able to guide you through it in person? (wise to ask in advance on the mailing list to see if there will be someone willing to help). WARNING: Make a full backup of everything you want from your current hard drive. All though it's uncommon things can go wrong, and you can guarantee if something is going to go wrong it will happen the one time you don't have a backup! Good luck whatever you do in the end. Let us know how it goes! -- Computers are like air conditioners.
