Glad to see the tool cleaned up the drive errors. The boot information will depend on what the second OS will be there. With Windows whether XP or Vista the second installation becomes the default with the newer version adding the older into it's own boot configuration as an option.
Vista wants the first primary however and will replace any existing copy while XP allowed you to install a second copy on other partitions. I ran into one when trying to put Vista on the second primary with XP Pro on the first. It refused and replaced Pro. For Linux you then have to work with the bootmenu.lst file and either Grub or Lilo added into the mbr if you don't find a 3rd party universal boot loader.
There was one ubuntu boot loader you saw on a 3 1/2" floppy that simply loaded the OS on the partition you selected whether Linux or MS some time back. No alterations to anything were needed on the hard drive to existing boot configurations there.
Another program saw a push button like gui for selecting any OS where you moved around with the TAB key and hit enter to load what was on any button. That was a little lame there however.
