win 98, win 2000 & Linux installation

My hard drive is a 20G with Win 98se installed.  I want to use partition magic so 
to install Red Hat Linux on this same hard drive, and then I will buy another hard 
drive and install windows 2000 on it.  

My questions are:

1).Is this possible?  Will there be conflicts?
2).Will the machine let me decide which o.s to use when it reboots?
3).Can I access old win 98 files/applications when I am working under Win 2000/Linux?
4). Some experts before mention win 2000 features best to shown when installed with 
NTFat.  How do i get it? Should i use partition magic to get this?
5). My computer is from Dell, will all the hard drive purchased from the market fit 
for Dell, or I have to purchase from Dell only?

Thank you very much for your helps...
