I need XP only for MS Project 2003 and Dreamweaver. Need to use both

I mean what kind of cross-installation usage might you have?
Or can they be totaly separated from each other?
Not that I care, but others on this list might jump down your throat for
a) top-posting, b) CC'ing sender. Just send your responses to the list.
And don't ask why reply-to is not to the list.

Check the list archives and other lists as well, this topic has been
covered extensively.
You are right to put XP on your first physical partition. And you can
even use the XP boot loader to multi-boot if you want, though grub works
fine with XP. If you want to share files with XP, use a FAT32 part
since NTFS writing is not well supported. I think you can share a home
partition between SuSE and debian, but I am not sure.
So you might have:
1) XP (NTFS)
2) FAT32
3) Extended 1
5) sys1
6) swap 1
7) home
4) Extended 2
9) sys2
10) swap 2
There are of course other options. You should explain your needs more.
