Download the ISO / Order some CDs.
Follow the standard install procedure on the disk.
At the end, GRUB (the Linux bootloader) will install onto your primary hard disk (hopefully) allowing you to choose between XP and Ubuntu at boot up. (It should be noted that it will probably try to boot to Ubuntu by default, this can be changed after you've installed).
