Question M$ Win Xp Pro On Master And Rh 7.3 On Slave

Hi guys,

Well, i have two hard-disks and one of them is a master and other is a slave.

so here is the problem:

I have installed WIn XP Pro on the master hdd.
I wanna install RH 7.3 on the slave disk.

What should i do so that its a success!!
1) Can I have a dual boot, with one OS on a master and other one on a slave?
2) Should I install the "Boot loader" in MBR of the master hdd or can it be on MBR of slave hdd?
3) Will it boot properly...thats a big question.

i have good deal of data on the master and dont wanna loose it! Does anyone know the sure shot method of how to install it this way?

i just wanna know where to install the "Boot Loader" in "Master MBR or Slave MBR"

Sam

first install winXP on HD1 then install 2nd HD on your redhat and after install Grub is overwrite your HD 1 MBR. this mean enable both menu. even you can one more OS install in your HD1. i have installed Win 2003 + WinXP + RH9 AS4 in one HD.
you have a 2 HD it means you can maximum installed 6 OS in one machine.

1. DOS (if select dos - go to xp)
2. LINUX (if select linux - go to linux)
