My question is can I install linux after that 8 GB beginning partition of my HD. Say I want to install it at next 6 GB. One I installed ..but after rebooting the PC when the linux installation is complete it always gives me..

What distribution and version are you installing? It appears it might be installing an older version of Lilo that had problems reading past the 1024 cylinder... etc.
