Without knowing what your specific problem is I would say that a real helpful thing to do is to download and burn a 'live' cd distribution such as Knoppix or Ubuntu (live cd version). Boot to that and run an fdisk utility or something similar, which will let you create a partition to use. You could create more than one partition including probably the boot partition.
Then when you boot up the redhat installer anaconda will recognize what you have and allow you to adress this. I am not sure about the Dynamic Disk Overlay feature, but I have occasionally had to create partitions in situations similar to this. Good luck and again post specific errors if you still need help.

I have an IBM laptop that is running win2000. I have a 30gig harddrive loaded with Dynamic Disk Overlay to correct the problem of the large disk size with the older laptop. I want to install fedora or some other linux flavor on laptop but am having problem with MBR. Can anyone suggest a workaround. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
