Hi Chantal,

I am running exactly the config you would like to have.  I have had no 
problems dual booting with the two os's.  Just ensure that you have enough HD 
for redhat.  I would recommend something like partition magic to resize your 
xp partition to gain enough room for rh.

Hope this helps you,

Phil Savoie
