You're confusing Red Hat distro numbers with Linux. Red Hat != Linux. That aside, that you have an NTFS filesystem isn't a problem. Likely, what's causing issues is that you haven't yet partitioned the filesystem. You can't just "append" Linux to an existing partition. You must first create a partition to which you can install Linux.
Since you seem to be coming from the windows world, I think what you want to use is Partition Magic, or something of the sort. Perhaps someone with experience on that front can advise you better than me.
