Can you install Win98SE after RH Linux 7.0 is installed as the only OS? I understand that if I can it will overwrite LILO, so then I would need to know how to repair LILO. Any ideas or advice? Please let me know. Thanks.

Ya, this is an easy one. Go ahead and install Windows, (You did make a Linux boot disk, right???), then after you're done, boot off your Linux boot floppy adn type in "/sbin/lilo" without the quotes. It will reinstall LILO.

Have fun!
