Alternative multi-boot option (which pleased my linux-phobic family):
Use install disks, run mkbootdisk
Floppy in boots linux, floppy out boots windows.

I would NOT use the windows loader. Boot the box with either disk 1 or
the rescue cd, mount the system, from the prompt type "grub-install
/dev/hda" without the quotes, assuming you have an IDE drive set as
master on the first channel. Then check /boot/grub/grub.conf to make
sure that your linux is in one of the stanza's.
