dual boot
Hi there,
I would like to reinstall WinME and install Redhat 9 on a separate partition.
What is the easiest way to do that?
Also how does this dual boot thing work?
Thanks

Re-install ME as you would do ordinarily - making sure you leave some free unpartitioned space at the end of your drive for Red Hat to go on.
Then simply, set your BIOS to boot from the cd-rom drive and boot from your 1st - RH9 CD
Let Red hat install itself automatically in the free space.
Install either GRUB or LILO to the MBR.
Make a boot floppy near the end of the Red Hat install process.
Any problems - re-post.
