There are several types of bootloaders - it's up to you to decide which one to use (isolinux, syslinux, LILO, Grub [or Grub Legacy], and Burg are some to get you started).

How do you handle the multiple operating system such as vista and ubuntu?

You have to install both operating systems to get a 'dual boot' system. I would suggest installing vista first, then installing ubuntu. Doing it the other way around will mean that the ubuntu installation will not be recognized after you install Vista, so do the Vista install first.The Ubuntu Grub loader will be able to recognize the Vista partition and should present you with a menu when you boot the machine as to which operating system you want to use.The easiest approach to this would be to install Vista on one partition and ubuntu on a different partition of your hard drive.

Can you use a Windows boot loader to load the Linux operating system?

Yes you can. Ubuntu's WUBI uses the Windows bootloader (NTLDR) to boot Linux. It also uses the Windows filesystem (NTFS). This, however, is not the traditional way to do things. The traditional way to dual-boot Linux and Windows is to use a generic bootloader such as Grub to boot both Windows and Linux.
