XP/Ubuntu dual-boot

[Chris Aitken]

I'm thinking of installing XP and Ubuntu as a dual-boot on my daughter's 
machine. Her birthday is less than two weeks away. I want to be able to 
have her iPod work for her. I hope Craig and Joe won't take this as an 
invitation to discontinue the iPod/gtkpod installation on my fedora 7 
computer. I'd like to keep on with that. This is just a contingency. As 
repulsive as it is to me, I hear the iPod will magically work under XP. 
It sounds like it has a better chance working under Ubuntu (than fedora 
7) as well. I've been wanting to try a debian-based system for some 
time. I hear that Ubuntu is a nice safe place for fedora chickens like 
me to start with debian-based OSs.

So, just to be clear: I'm not giving up on fedora 7 (it is on my 
production machine for our business so I can't get rid of it lightly), 
but I want to try an XP/Ubuntu dual-boot on my daughter's machine.

1. What is the latest stable version of Ubuntu and what a good site to 
get the iso from?
2. Is it best to install XP or Ubuntu first.
