what process would you guys recommend I install RH9 in my separate linux-only hard drive in, i was thinking:
Burn ISOs to 3 separate CDs (one per ISO)
Set BIOS to boot from linux HDD
Reboot
Install 1st RH9 cd
etc., etc.
do you guys think that that is the manner in which I should go about installing? seems like the best to me, but I always like to make sure with knowledgable people who know what they are doing.

Aw, come on now...There's approximately 23049620947610947608713406781476 Linux installation guides on the web. You might try reading a few. Also, I'm certain Red Hat has some good install docs.
Learn to read the documentation. You'll be doing a lot of reading if you plan on doing anything more than basic user stuff with *nix.
Just try it.

you would actually need to set the bios to boot from the cd

Redhat has docs. Google can help you find them.
I don't have a giant picture to post as I'd like to, but...
RTFM.
Start now, please.

i wanted to be nice but as mwarps says
RTFM
and
www.google.com
and
https://www.redhat.com/docs/
once you find instructions for something you want to do and try them, then if you have problems, come and ask.
