=-=
=-=Hello,
=-=I'd like to know more about how to manage multiple OSes on my PC. Are
=-=there any FAQs for partitions/MBRs and booting sequences and for the
=-=available boot managers? I'd like to configure my system as general as
=-=possible and would like to prevent some mistakes beforehand.
=-=Thank you in advance,

I think in your case the best way is to study several Linux-HOWTO's, which 
are available on sunsite or other ftp-sites.
e.g. there is a WIN95/Linux - Howto which handles this topic or the LILO - 
Howto which is more general but also answers your question.

Hope this helps,
 Olli
