Dual Boot Linux and XP Professional?

[Daniel Dominguez]

well here's the problem, I have a 20GB drive which has
Red Hat 9 installed on it and I have a 80GB drive with
Windows XP Professional installed on it. Now I want to
know how to make it so you can choose which OS you want
to boot, because when I put the Windows XP drive as the
master then XP boots, when I put the Red Hat drive as the
master Red Hat boots. How can I make it so that I can
chooos which drive to boot from( which OS to boot). A
while back I partitioned my 40GB drive and installed XP
Pro and Red Hat in that case when it booted it went into
a Red Hat menu and it had XP Pro and Red Hat and you
could choos which OS to boot, but now since they are
seperate drives it doesn't do that. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Use the Lilo (Linux) Boot loader. Its WAY easier to configure.
