Is installation even possible with my hardware profile?

I apologise for starting yet another newbie thread on a matter you've probably gone through a thousand times, but I made a thorough search and found no evidence of my particular model, and am completely unsure of where to start. I suppose I should begin by explaining that the model I have is a compaq SR5019UK desktop PC, with a few revisions. Aside from the standard motherboard which is an asus, it now contains 6gb of ram, 160gb primary and a 500gb secondary, a geforce 9400GT 512mb graphics card and a lightscribe DVD drive - is it possible to get leopard running on this profile?

 

Ideally, I'd like to dual boot, and towards this end was looking at using the psystar rebelEFI software once it's released, but I'm not even sure if or how this works; am I correct in assuming I could make two partitions on my 160gb drive, or would I need to create a primary partition on individual drives for each OS installation?

 

If anyone could give me some advice, pointers, and even help for building an install CD, this would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you in advance for any assistance the forum may be able to render -
