Really? I could of swore XP deletes the Linux boot loader. Cus I had Linux then installed XP and I lost access to Linux (had to boot Linux using the installation CD then repair the boot loader)
Also one tip to the poster, if you have a copy of Partition Magic lying around or know someone who does, using it before the XP install is a bit more straightforward I find.
