Hi,

I want to add LINUX redhat to my system. I'm already using the dual boot
with WinXP and win98. I have bought a new disk drive to put LINUX onto and
my plan was to change the BIOS to see the disk I want to boot from.

Will this work?

Yes, that should work fine. Before choosing Redhat as your Linux
distribution you may want to read this:

Yes. Read the Red Hat instructions carefully.
