it will ask you about installing a boot manager. lilo or grub will be your
choices.
you should be able to add the w2k partition or it might find it for you.
before you commit to installing any boot manager into your mbr make sure the
settings are 
correct.

So if I already have Win2K Pro installed on the system, start the RH 7.3 
installation from a reboot from CD and tell it to use the unused portion of
my 
HD (or however much of it I want to allocate to RH), there will be a point 
during the installation that Grub will see the Win2K bootable partition and
ask 
if it should be included?
