boot existing linux redhat partition on single hardisk via vpc

Hi,

I can currently boot and use linux liveCD distros via vpc and it works great.

But I currently have and existing linux partition that I dual boot with on
my single hardisk (this was before I found out about vpc).

Is it possible to boot my existing linux partition via vpc as this as quite
a lot of my pre-installed ad-hoc programs and misc scripts that I dont really
want recompile by doing a new install.

I currently dual boot b/w Redhat linux, Windows XP

if this can be done I will never have to reboot again just to use any of
these systems,
