cgkanchi has written a good tutorial called:
Booting Linux using the Windows 2000 Boot Menu.
Don't be confused where it says Windows 2000. It also aplies to XP.
Another method would be to boot into linux and install lilo or grub.
You can boot into linux by using the slackware cd to boot from or a bootdisk.
If you need a bootdisk visit www.bootdisk.com
Searching www.google.com I found this:
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/...ch06-lilo.html
for installing LILO. I prefer GRUB, and Google yielded
http://www.gnu.org/manual/grub-0.92/...-natively.html
Use www.google.com
It's your best friend
It's been said time and time and time and time again
I will say it one more time...
