Sorry, but I´ve not the time and interest to give here an intoduction
lecture in installation and configuration of an operating system!
Establishing a dual-boot system should really be a basic knowledge
of every serious computer user -
if this is not the case for you, you´ll find enough information about it
in the internet, in computer magazines or in the OS manuals.

Franz.
