If you install Linux while having Win xp on your system, you will have a dual boot menu to begin.  You wll not lose Windows Xp.  The only problem is if you want to get rid of Linux.  you have to boot up with a Win 98 boot disk and run fdisk /mbr to get rid of the Linux dual boot menu.

Linux is neat. The dual boot thing is wonderful.
To get rid of linux boot menu
from linux:

lilo -u /dev/hda

from Xp :

boot into xp recovery console

run fixmbr

help (for help) about other commands
