Jim, More important than the drives will be the order you install Windows and Fedora. Cut to the chase: install Windows first. It will probably want to install itself on the /dev/sda1 partition. This is not a problem for Fedora 12. Just be sure you tell the Fedora installer to install it on /dev/sdbX -- it will probably want to make two partitions on /dev/sdb for /boot and LVM -- and to install GRUB on /dev/sda. Then edit /etc/grub.conf to uncomment the #hiddenmenu line and set the timeout to 5 seconds or so. --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL
