I am going to dual-boot Ubuntu 11.10 and Fedora 16. I am installing Ubuntu first. Partitioning 15 MB for Boot partition, and the rest of my space divided by 2 for each Ubuntu and Fedora (500 GB each). I set the Fedora partition not to be used by Ubuntu. I am not using Swap partition. After the installation, do I have to manually configure grub? Or will the Fedora installer do the job for me?

Personally, I would install Fedora first because its installation is much more difficult than Ubuntu's installation. Ubuntu will also set everything for you. You do not need to create a separate partition as a boot partition. Just install fedora and when you install Ubuntu choose the "install alongside fedora (or other linux distribution)" and Ubuntu will do the rest.
