I think you have to put the bootloader on the MBR of the master drive unless you are setting your BIOS to boot the second hard drive. It should not affect your windoze though. The MBR is the first sector of the hard drive and is not used by windoze. It is just blank. If you ever need to put it back like it was you can boot the XP CD and type in fixmbr. That will take the bootloader back off and back to the way it was.
One thing about Linux, you can go backwards. I'm not to good on Redhat, never even seen it before, but the bootloader is the same regardless of what you use. I have read where when, on occasion, you first put on a bootloader windoze will not boot. It IS still there, just not a option till you add it. If you run into that just add this to the appropriate bootloader file, /boot/grub/grub.conf or /etc/lilo.conf ??? file.
Code:
# For booting Windows NT or Windows95
title Windows NT / Windows 95 boot menu
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
That should add the option to boot windoze.
I hope this may help a bit or give this a BUMP so a Redhat expert will pop in.
Later
