dual boot 2 drives
 
Windows XP on drive C ; One partition on drive C:
To put RH 9 on drive D:

Does drive C: need a place ( a partition on C) to install GRUB on so that this runs at boot allowing the user the option to pick which OS to boot?

GRUB has to go on drive C correct?

With XP on C the master drive could I simply make it the slave and put Linux on the
drive and make it the master. Would this work or be simplier or rock the boat?

thank you

Linux will be happy no matter where, and
Grub should be on your primary HDD, but
not in what you refer to as C ... install it to
the MBR of your master hard disk.
