I just installed slackware on a second HD and i have grub runnning as my boot manager under RH9. How do i eliminate the windows entry in grub (windows is gone, whoo hoo) and add slackware so i have the option of booting RH9 or Slackware? thanks.

Oh geez, I guess I misunderstood when you asked how to get rid of the windows entry or perhaps you have had a major epiphany in the last few minutes, lol.

Anyway, check out this site on grub:

and see a sample on my guide:

adding Slack will require you to tell it where it can find the kernel and the name of the kernel. See the docs for more info.
