Boot Loader Configuration - Installation Location

   Choose the partition where you would like the boot
   loader to be installed.

   Choose to install the boot loader on the Master
   Boot Record (recommended), unless the MBR already
   starts another OS loader, such as System
   Commander. The MBR is a special area on your hard
   drive that is automatically loaded by your
   computer's BIOS, and is the earliest point at
   which the boot loader can take control of the boot
   process. If you install the boot loader in the
   MBR, when your machine boots, it will present a
   boot: prompt. You can then boot Red Hat Linux or
   any other operating system you configure the boot
   loader to boot.

   Choose to install the Linux boot loader on the
   first sector of your boot partition, if you are
   using another boot loader. In this case, your
   other boot loader will take control first. You can
   then configure that boot loader to start the Linux
   boot loader (which will then boot Red Hat Linux).
