Question Hard disk setting


I have 2 hard disks in my computer with win XP in the first hard disk and red hat linux in my second har disk. I put my first hard disk (win xp) as primary master and the second hard (red hat linux) disk as primary slave. The problem is I can't boot my red hat linux even if I change my BIOS setting with red hat linux as the boot master. Can you help me how to configure my hard disks setting in my computer so I can boot from each hard disk with different OS. Thanks for your help.

Use lilo or grub to dual boot systems. I would recommand starting with a lilo boot disk, it is safer Check RH docs for details.

You should take a look at setup of dual boot system, search these forums I bet your question was addressed more than once here.
