Some installs from a recovery partition blow away *EVERYTHING* on the disk. If you've got one of those, there's no way to install Linux first and have it there after the Windows intall.
I think most of those blow away everything, but I also think it's a stretch to call any of those an "install". What those really are is an OEM configuration recovery, and I have yet to hear of a multiboot OEM configuration. Good that you pointed this out, something I didn't think of when writing that page, and needs to be mentioned. -- "All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteoousness." 2 Timothy 3:16 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
