Here's what I do. I start with an empty HD, and run fdisk off a floppy. Using Fdisk I set the partitions. One for Windows, and one for Linux (both being NTFS). Now that the partitions are preset, I install windows (I dislike XP, its activation, and bugginess, so I still use windows2000). Then I install Linux after that, Linux's bootloader takes over, and all is good.
I have to say that I feel that Redhat is smoother than mandrake. But Mandrake might be best for newbies, its a bit easier to install, and it does a few things automatically that you have to do manually in redhat.
