It's spelled Linux (and pronounced in a large number of ways).

Yes, you can have both Win95 and Debian.  There are several ways to select
the O/S at boot time.  The simplist is to use the LILO loader, but it can
also be booted from DOS with the LOADLIN program.  This can be called by a
config.sys menu, if desired.

For general information on Debian, see http://www.debian.org.  Specific
installation information is at
ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/stable/disks-i386/current/install.html
