dual booting xp mandrake/redhat two hd


i am going to be buying a second hard drive for a linux install... i would just like to know how i would go about doing this. the first hard drive is windows xp home and the second is completely blank. i would like to use either mandrake or redhat on the new hard drive but need to know how i would go about booting to the second instead of the first.

i have red hat 9, and when i installed it it allowed me to set up a bootloader, you get a choice of which one you want to use LILO or GRUB, and you can configure it to boot to whichever drive and partition you want. It should automatically detect windows, it may come up a DOS but you can change that in the installer
