Hello everyone. Here's what I've got. My mom has a very tempermental PC running Windoze98, and I happen to have a spare Hard Drive laying around. The HD is out of my iMac, but its a standard ATA66 IDE hard drive, but with two HFS+ partitions on it. Can I format it with the RH9 installer and then install RH9 on it?

What I want to do past that is leave in her existing HD and use it for just Windows (because she'll still be booting into it from time to time for some apps that she needs) and have the RH on the other drive and dual boot. I was thinking that it would be easiest to make the "new" hard drive the master and put the boot loader and stuff on it, and make the windows drive the slave, would that work?

Is there anything else I need to know before I start doing this?

TIA
Ian Meyer
