Overclockers Club have thrown up their new Dual boot guide for Windows XP and Fedora or Red Hat Linux!
I was sitting here today thinking about all the times I've been asked to help someone setup a dual boot system with Windows XP and surprisingly, Red Hat or Fedora Linux. I say surprisingly, because in my opinion Red Hat and Fedora has always been the easiest Linux distros to install on a dual boot setup. Apparently it's not, as there are still quite a few people who ask me for help. I'm far from a Linux expert, but I have managed to learn enough about it to be dangerous, and maybe even helpful on occasion. So I thought I'd put together a little "how-to" on installing Red Hat/Fedora on a system that already has Windows XP on it.
My suggestion to anyone wanting to dual boot Windows and Linux is to use two separate hard drives; one drive for Linux, and one drive for Windows. This just makes things easier, though it's really not any harder on system with one drive and multiple partitions.
Like I said, this guide is going with the assumption that you already have Windows installed, and that it resides on a separate hard drive than what you will be using for Linux.
