Will RHEL 4 beta 2 destroy an existing XP partition?

Hi:

I have an AMD64 with XP, want to test RHEL ES v4 Beta 2. Just would like to know if I will have the option to make a partition in the free space. I jave heard RedHat Server versions format all the hd..

I am eager to test Linux at 64-bit...

I have used RH 9 but RHEL is a a new experience want to check to avoid lossing my XP installation...

TIA

Thats not true, you have the option to preserve existing partitons. The installation is quite similar to the installation of Fedora Core.
