I recently set my Dell Inspiron 6000 up for dual boot to Ubuntu 6.10.
It went pretty smoothly. I used this page as a guide, though of
course I had to improvise a little to get it all working:

One thing I chose to do was to blow away the Dell rescue partitions.
I was assured by a tech that the CDs that came with my laptop have
everything that was in those two slices.
If you get stuck, feel free to drop me a line and I'll do what I can to help.
Take care,
Dave
