Install Ubuntu on a separate partition or hard drive, and the Ubuntu installer will detect that you have Windows installed and handle the rest.

Ubuntu comes bundled with either grub or lilo. You can decide during the installation. I currently use grub however I found lilo to be much easier to configure when I first started out.

If you want ot dual boot ubuntu with XP, make sure XP is installed first. Then, install ubuntu. Set it to install to a different partition. In my experience, the GRUB boot manager will auto configure itself, and you will be able to choose from either operating system at startup. Also, the grub file is relatively easy to edit to change the order or OSes in the list, just grab a man page on grub. :)
