It is possible to have both disks set up as primary and active and
install LILO into the MBR of disk 1 (with RH7.1) and get that to boot
disk 2 and fool NT(Win2000) into loading from its normal MBR route.
However you would need to edit your RH7.1 FSTAB so that all partitions
are on HDA and not HDB as they are currently. If your interested i'll
post again.
