Anshu, Are you doing okay with Linux fdisk in your partitioning? I could have mentioned that there are at least two parts to what you will be doing.
First, you will be using fdisk to set up your partitions. Linux boot and root partitions will be made native Linux (ext2) file systems. The swap partition will be made Linux swap. You will also be making a FAT partition for your Microsoft Windows XP operating system. Thus, Linux fdisk has been used to create the necessary partitions. Second, when installing RedHat Linux 7.3, you will be designating which partitions to use for boot, root, and swap. Disk Druid, if you use that tool, will ask you for these designations. You will enter: '/boot' for the Linux boot partition, and '/' for the Linux root partition I believe Disk Druid will recognize the swap partition and designate it as <swap> for you. I hope you are doing okay with Linux fdisk and lilo.
