i remember for linux on mac, you would boot macos, then use a bootloader there to boot to linux.

is there one like that for windows?like i boot into windows, then while there i boot to linux?

There is a possibility to run a boot loader like GRUB. I currently use the GRUB to dual boot Windows XP and RedHat 9.0. The most important part is ensuring that windows installs on the first sector of the drive(it's installed first), windows has a bad habit of default choosing the first sector of the drive. Then you can set up linux to boot from the GRUB during installation.
