have any of you mannaged to successfully install linux alongside with windows?

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Thanks a million Didier,

This is a great handbook. One of the things which discouraged me from 
adopting linux in the past was the lack of easy to follow 
documentations. Everytime I tried, I found myself browsing in highly 
technical documents that sounded like a foreign language to me. This 
handbook seems to avoid this problem.

I will certainly try slint, if it can be used as a live install without 
having to physically install on my hard disc. I will also browse this 
handbook to learn more about slint.

Thanks for this. I will certainly need your help if I install it on my 
hard disc. What I want ideally is the ability to have both linux and 
windows running on the same machine, and I choose which one to start at 
bootup.

Regards,

Ibrahim
