What are some of the basics on how to use Linux?
The first step when starting to use Linux is to understand that you need to create a new user account besides the root one you made during installation. The root account has access to all system files and other logins have limited access. This means that if something goes wrong such as a virus if you are logged in the root account then it can corrupt all files but as a normal user the damage is isolated.
How do you have two OS with two internal hard drives one running Windows 2000 pro and the other running Linux Ubuntu?
the way I did it was install windows first, then use the Linux CD (preferably a live CD) to do the Linux installation. During the installation it will run a partition manager, and from there you can select the drive to use for the installation. It will create a bootloader (grub, lilo) on the 1st disk so it knows where to find the 2 different operating systems.

RT Linux is a specific distribution of Linux, as is Fedora. You can install RT Linux over Fedora, but RT Linux isn't a program you install in a Fedora installation, but an entirely different installation altogether (and meant for different things; RT Linux is meant for specialty devices where the machine needs to manage devices and calculations in Real-time whereas Fedora is more a desktop/server distribution.)
