Linux is unable to run "under" Windows 95, but it can run on the same 
machine.  It cannot run _at_the_same_time_, though.

Look on your CDs for a program called 'FIPS.EXE'.  This program runs in 
DOS and allows you to repartition your disk to make space for a new 
partition, say, a Linux partition.  You _will_ need to take some steps 
before you run FIPS, so read the doc!
