I was just wanted to know do I need all four disk to install 7.2 or do i just need the first two

And if I wanted to do a dual boot with windows xp pro and redhat 7.2 do i just do it like I would if i was going to put say windows xp pro and windows 2000 server as a dual boot

7.2 only needs the first 2 (actually maybe even just the first one, but no more than the first 2 I know for sure)

Dual booting is addressed alot here, this will depend on what boot manager you use. You will probably have the choice between LILO or Grub (which I think might be default on 7.2?). It's personal preference on that version as neither one is limited in any way, so choose. I prefer Lilo, but many others say Grub, so go with what your heart desires, then search here for instructions on dual booting with em.

Cool
