Yes, its possible. While installing Madrake, Create a [your ram size] x 2 MB swap partition[type -
swap], 5 GB root partition [type
ext2, mount point -
/] and a 5 GB windows partition[type -
fat32, mount point -
/mnt/windows].

I think windows is able to handle Drive Letter by itself. You need not to worry on that issue much.

You can't access any of your linux partitions from windows, without the help of some third party tools. You can access your win partitions from linux tough.

If you have decided to use linux for a long time, you can't avoid facing a terminal one day or other. Dont be afraid of commands. try to learn it. It gives you more info on what are you doing with your os, than using a gui.
