Hi,
How do i do to triple boot win2k, winme and redhat7.1?
I currently have Winme on c:\ and win2k on f:\ and the D:\ drive is shared between both OS:es.
I installed win2k on winme to get dualboot, how can i proceed?

After you're able to dual boot both Windows operating systems, install Linux last. If you're using the boot manager for Linux, it will allow you to choose between Windows / Linux.
When choosing Windows, it will disable the usual two options from your original dual boot.
If you're using Bootmagic, you can easily configure the system to include all operating systems in one menu, however I have heard many user problems in regards to bootmagic crashes and recovery.
