Hi Anth: I would recommend that you first create the linux native and swap partitions using fdisk or Partition magic. Partition magic is very easy to use, I do! Then reboot from CD-ROM (if your bios supports that). Else run the cd-rom from dos, else use linux floppy disk for installation. The cd-rom has plenty of documentation, I would read that first! Any problems, let me know! -Vishal.

I put in the disc and restarted, and then I came to a menu asking for a partition. I have no idea how to work this, so help would be greatly appreciated.
