in most of the recomendations that if you want to have a dual system
you have to install first windows, but my questions is how to install
windows and partition the hd after Fedora 2, without re-installing
both systems.
I hope somebody can help with this question.

If you are installing Windows to a separate hard drive - follow my instructions here:

Otherwise (installing on same HD) - I *think* what you need to do is install Windows to an empty partition, it will overwrite your MBR, then boot off of an emergency boot CD and reload grub onto your MBR for Fedora, then boot into Fedora and add the WinXP boot option. But someone else probably has precise instructions.

I prefer to make it possible to completely remove the Windows HD when installing Fedora (and vice versa) which is why I do it the way described in my tip page.
