Well, you can have both WIN & Linux reside on the same disk without any
problems, Just make sure to use FIPS (or Partition Magic) to create Linux
partition if you want retain your WIN stuff. Go through some relevant FAQs
before you really jump into it. This can save you lots of sleepless nights.

Good Luck.
