Hope you find what you need here! Good luck!

The procedure that I would suggest is to install Win2k on your machine first, leaving whatever space on your hard drive(s) that you want to use for Linux unpartitioned. Then after installing 2k, install Red Hat, and use LILO as your boot loader, and during Red Hat setup, it should detect your existing Win2k install and insert the appropriate boot entry, and allow you to select which OS you want to be your default boot.

I would like to suggest that you have a look at a product called VMware. This product allows you to run many operating systems at once. For example, you startup your Windows machine, then startup VMware and within VMware you can install other operating systems (eg: Linux, Windows 95, 98 ...etc). By using VMware all these different OS' can be running at the same time, allowing you to interact and connect to them.
