I'd certainly endorse both statements, particularly about having separaete discs, because when, as you will have to in my experience reinstall Windows if they are both on one disc the inevitable consequence is that it will demand the whole disc and you will lose your linux install. Unless anybody knows how to hide linux partitions when installing windows.
Fully agreed on the two disks. But I did watch someone this afternoon install win2K on a system that had SUSE 8.2, and during each of the reboots the win2K install needs he had to select windows from the grub screen. When completed grub and SUSE still both worked fine. The win2K was going into a partion that had been ntfs and he asked win2k to refomat it as fat32. YMMV David
