As long as you don't wipe out your XP partition or
need to resize it this should be pretty easy. I think
RedHat comes with grub as the default boot loader
instead of lilo and it only takes a few lines in the
config file to get it set up right. RedHat might even
do this for you.

go here

and have a look at that while you are waiting.
