Error Linux o.s on two sata's.

Hi,

I have two sata hard-disks. Out of those, one is having RHEL5 operating system, and other is having fedora7 operating system.
When I connect the disk with RHEL5 operating system to sata0 port and disk with fedora7 operating system to sata1 port. While booting [after POST] it shows RHEL5 boot screen[red colour screen , which appear while booting of RHEL5], But surprisingly it mounts/boots into other OS i.e fedora7 operating system.
I am not able to understand.Hw will it boot? if we connect two linux OS on two different sata H/D's?

Thanks in advance.

Perl::OSType(3pm)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide					 Perl::OSType(3pm)

NAME
Perl::OSType - Map Perl operating system names to generic types VERSION
version 1.002 SYNOPSIS
use Perl::OSType ':all'; $current_type = os_type(); $other_type = os_type('dragonfly'); # gives 'Unix' DESCRIPTION
Modules that provide OS-specific behaviors often need to know if the current operating system matches a more generic type of operating systems. For example, 'linux' is a type of 'Unix' operating system and so is 'freebsd'. This module provides a mapping between an operating system name as given by $^O and a more generic type. The initial version is based on the OS type mappings provided in Module::Build and ExtUtils::CBuilder. (Thus, Microsoft operating systems are given the type 'Windows' rather than 'Win32'.) USAGE
No functions are exported by default. The export tag ":all" will export all functions listed below. os_type() $os_type = os_type(); $os_type = os_type('MSWin32'); Returns a single, generic OS type for a given operating system name. With no arguments, returns the OS type for the current value of $^O. If the operating system is not recognized, the function will return the empty string. is_os_type() $is_windows = is_os_type('Windows'); $is_unix = is_os_type('Unix', 'dragonfly'); Given an OS type and OS name, returns true or false if the OS name is of the given type. As with "os_type", it will use the current operating system as a default if no OS name is provided. SEE ALSO
