You have to create partitions for linux to use on the 1 drive system.
You can use either fips or disk druid to create these partitions. You
need at least a root partition and a swap partition. In order to have
windows be the default os to run, you have this option when you install
LILO, the Linux loader. You can also use liloconfig to change this once
lilo is installed. Another option would be System Commander from V
Communications, the deluxe version includes partition commander to
allow you to manage the partitions on your drives.
