The other way of doing it is by using virtual machine software--eg VMWare
Yes, but be warned - don't try to install any Linux on Virtual PC. You'd be wasting your time - Virtual PC doesn't support 24-bit color like Linux, meaning that when you try to start X, nothing will be recognizable. VMware is definitely the way to go for installing an embedded Linux.
As for dual-booting, there are plenty of guides, just look around.
