Note::: This article for Linux newbie...
Here is how you can install Linux operating system without disturbing your windows OS.
1) Boot windows and check for free partition space of about 10GB.
You can do it by START->Administrative Tools ->Computer Management -> Disk Management
Now check for free space.
If you have used full disk for your windows partition like C:, D: , E: etc. Then you have to free one partition. for example if your windows is installed in C: drive then you can move all data of e: drive to d: drive. Then remove e: drive using disk management.
So now you have one >10 GB free partition.
2) Reboot from linux install DVD.
Rest tomorrow....
