You want it on /dev/hda, because that's the place the computer BIOS boots. But make sure that the installer detects and adds your Windows, or you can no longer boot Windows! If you are not sure, put the boot loader on the Linux drive, let the installer create a boot floppy disk and boot Linux from the floppy. You can set up the dual booting with the Linux boot loader at any time when you know what you are doing. P.S.: *Please* use always a good subject on your mails, or you won't receive much replies!
