Hello,
Is it possible to run, either though virtual machine or by dual boot, to run another system such as Linux (Ubuntu) or Windows 98 or Windows XP?

You already can run Linux on this tab, it's not practical but you can. As for Windows, 98 and XP are not Arm compatible so there is no go for those. The only possibility is Windows 8 RT and it only runs on their official hardware.

Before you blab,...
Dualbooting with Windows XP is special. Windows XP is so deprecated that the Win8 bootloader does not show it.
It is possible, as my computer's primary OS is WinXP; Win8 is my secondary and Ubuntu 11.04 is my tertiary OS. Only Win8 shows up in the Win8 bootloader; I had to EasyBCD and write the Win7 bootloader to my MBR and add the other two manually.
Yes, I dual-booted WinXP with Win 8... But how to dual boot Win 8 with ubuntu ?

Same way as usual. Do a straight partition and install from LiveCD/USB.
If you want to triple boot, I don't think you'll have much success with a Wubi-based install because it would only write to the bootloader of the Windows install that it was installed to AFAIK. I transitioned my Wubi install to a full partition once I installed Win8. It didn't stop it from not appearing on the Win8 bootloader.
I have Windows 8 and Ubuntu 11.10 in separated partitions. I had Win 8 installed first, then I installed ubuntu, but GRUB doesn't add Win to boot menu, when I run "sudo update-grub" it doesn't detect Windows 8

If you're trying to run Windows 8 64-bit, you have to have hardware virtualization support.
See http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch03.html#intro-64bitguests and http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch10.html#hwvirt.

No he means that your cpu needs virtualization support in order to run it in a VM. What CPU do you have?

If you follow and read the links I posted above, you'll see that if you're running the 64-bit version of Windows 8 (as a guest) it needs hardware virtualization (i.e., your CPU needs to support either VT-x [Intel chips] or AMD-V [AMD chips]). You'll need to turn it on in the BIOS.
I believe the other option is to run the 32-bit version of Windows 8 in your VM, where it will not require that hardware virtualization (if my memory serves).
I have Samsung Ativ Smart PC notebook (tablet transformer) based on Intel Atom Z2760 and Windows 8 x86 core.
Windows Phone SDK 8.0 required Windows 8 x64, Hyper-V and hardware virtualization. But if I don't need Windows Phone Emulator, I don't need Hyper-V and hardware virtualization.
Is there a way to install Windows Phone SDK without Emulator?
(Sorry, translated from Russian)
oh
The windows phone SDK comes with a complete set of tools, so while installing you can't CHOOSE what you want or not....
You have just 2 options-
1 : Install it with every thing which is present in the SDK.
2 : Maybe after installation TRY to delete/uninstall the phone emulator separately but at first you HAVE to let it install completely.
Hit thanks if you got me..!!

did you ever find a solution to this? I am having the same issue...
I have a desktop computer about 4 year old, running Windows XP. It has hardware robust enough to run Windows 8. So, I created a bootable usb drive using Windows 7 usb tool in my laptop running Windows 7 HP x64. The usb drive works fine on my laptop, both while booting from it as well as using it while already booted on Win 7 to install Windows 8. But when I insert it to my desktop, and run setup.exe, it shows that setup.exe is not a valid win32 application. And if I boot from it, just shows the Windows 8 logo and does nothing, even if I leave it for a couple of hours, I have purchased Windows 8 for both my pcs but I am not able to install it on my desktop. Help.

Windows XP 32-bit will likely be unable to start the 64-bit setup.exe file, you'll have to boot the installer from the USB stick or from a DVD.
or use a 32-bit ISO and install a 32-bit version of Windows 8.
As nbates said you can't run apps with different architecture. Make sure you have the right settings set in the BIOS (make the USB device bootable) and install again. I think that there was an app called Wintousb or something like that. That's the best app for making a bootable usb.
EDIT:
WinToFlash, that's how the app is called

Since Windows XP both a 32Bit and a 64Bit version exist. OP therefore should clearly specify which machine have what OS version running...

Another worthwile freeware tool is WiNToBootic - the ultimate Windows Boot Disk Maker

yeah since XP 64-bit was mostly unpopular i'm assuming they're using 32-bit XP.

Hello,
Can I install Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 to my tablet?
My tablet: Goclever Tab 9300 (Poland producer)
Thanks.
Best regards
windows 8/8.1 definitely not, it has an ARM processor and windows 8/8.1 requires an X86-compatible processor.
windows RT could theoretically be done, but it would require a lot of trickery and custom drivers which no developer is ever going to bother with.
so in short, no.
if you want windows on that tablet, use remote desktop, vnc, teamviewer, etc.
