Get a boot manager and a partitioning program. Create a second primary
partition to install the second system to. You use the boot manager to
select which system will start at boot. This is what I use:

BootIt Next Generation: http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/ is a *full
function* demo you can try for free for 30 days. It does partitioning,
shoots a compressed image and is a boot manager. It is not quite as
easy to use as Partition Magic but it is less than half the cost and has
more features. Here are some helpful support sites:

As long as it is a version that will work with your systems, yes it will
work fine. I think the boot manager is Boot Magic and you would need to
install that as well.
