i've done it this way where i've installed ubuntu and not a big fan of
gnome, so i would install kde off the pkg mngr, but then you end up with a
ton of other stuff, like, games, dev stuff, languages, etc etc, but this way
you have an option of choosing which desktop to use, fluxbox, xfce, etc...so
i tested out the two different builds and since i'm a kde fan, i ditched
ubuntu and switched to kubuntu.

you can definitely do the dual boot if you like, but if you're like me and
prefer kde over gnome, then just install Kubuntu
