Just to reiterate a bit on Kurth. 
The linux fdisk command can be used to set up the partitions on the new 
disk. Once you set up the partitions, run mkfs on each partition to create 
a file system on them. Then, add the appropriate entries to the /etc/fstab 
file so the partitions can be mounted when you boot. 
You might be able to do this through Linuxconf. (I am a SuSE user, and 
their YaST utility can be used to do all of this. Red Hat also has Disk 
Druid, which I hate, but that is just my opinion).
