Sorry for the lack of info...
Running RH 7.2 / 2.4.12 is the kernel i want to add... boot partition is
sda1 data is sda5...
from what I am also reading you can add a windows install after you alread
have linux up and running... (old hard drive pulled from machine with
windows.. left out during linux install... put back in as hdb/sdb after
linux install... boom grub sees both? )
