[ale] Format C in linux

[smn]

Usually, fdisk /mbr will return the DOS mbr (master boot record) to
normal.  Then you can create partitions for Win and linux.  Once You get
windoze installed, install linux with the lilo on the mbr.  Most linux
install programs will recognize the windows is on another partition and
configure lilo appropriately.

Good luck.
