I'll hazard a guess ! if your prob seems to be uninstall'n RH6.1 from
your,old HDD and installing RH6.2 in your new one & reclaiming the space in
the old one !!!
For starters get ur RH (6.1 or 6.2 ) CD to boot , then choose partition
manually. In the fdisk menu that appears... choose
p to print ur partns , d the unrequired ones and s to save the changes in
your HDD ( the above can also be done from a linux boot floppy).Then boot
win and hit fdisk/mbr.
Install ur new HDD as Slave(set the jumper on the HDD) & let ur Bios detect
it if it's the autodetecting kind.
And if ur not willing to give up, ur 6.1, why not choose upgrade,
in ur 6.2 ?
