    AIRC, most Linux instilations say you should start the non-linux install 
first.
 From Debian: "...you should install all other system(s) before proceeding 
with Linux installation.".
    By the way, It could depend on what version of the operating system whose 
"name shall not be mentioned" you want to use.
