Making a Windows-XP Pachine Dual-boot

[John J. Boyer]

I just got a new dell computer with Windows XP. Now I want to make it 
dual-boot for Debian unstable. The machine has no serial ports, so I have 
to get an adaptor before I can connect my braille display. I can access 
the machine over the network with smbclient.

Is there anything I can do at this point? Once I get a USB-to-serial 
adaptor how do I set up the Linux partition? How can I get a basic Debian 
system on a Cd? Once that is installed, I can downlead everything else I 
need.

Thanks,
John
