Before I go through
the possible headaches, I thought I'd ask: Is there experience installing
RH 7.2 on a Dell Latitude C600? Are there trouble spots to watch out for
and secrets to know?
The laptop has
a Pent 3, Intel 440BX AGPset (Mobile) chipset and a ATI Rage Mobile 128
graphics chip. Memory is: 256M RAM, 8M video RAM. HDD is 20 GB
Hitachi. It could be either a SCSI or IDE drive. OS as delivered is
Win 2k, SP1 which has formatted the entire HDD as the C: drive (less about 20 MB
as the first partition). The screen is a 14.1" SXGA+ display running at
1400 x 1050 pixels with 60 Hz refresh. The Win 2k fonts look best at this
resolution, even though the text is extremely small. But the lower
resolutions were hard to read (just a bunch of dots). "Mouse" is via
pointer stick with a touch pad, too.
Thanks in
advance,
Eric
