Paul:
You should be able to do it if the drive is going to be dedicated entirely to 
RedHat. According to http://www.redhat.com/software/linux/technical/, you 
need at least 475 MB for a minimum installation, 1.7 GB for a personal 
desktop, 2.1 GB for a workstation. (You won't be able to install everything, 
however, as that requires 5.0 GB.) Note that these requirements do _not_ 
include file storage space.
