os install order vista before linux

c: xp_x64 (installed) d: vista_x64 b5384 (proposed) /hdc mandriva-10_x64 (proposed)
Should I install Vista before Mandriva, or does it matter? I'd assume I'd want the Linux bootloader on last? Both will be on the same physical drive.
Also: Should Vista be installed from within XP or booted from the DVD? Will I need to f6 the nvidia x64 sata drivers for Vista?
I assume I won't have any problems running Vista Aero on?: amd 4400 4gb abit nvidia sli geforce 6800
Thanks

Install Linux after, Vista loves to take over as the default boot manager. But, the issue here now, is the Linux bootloader, LILO or GRUB is compatible Vista's boot manager. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta
