It's my experience that it's better to install Linux last.
Never trust a Windoze app to launch Linux...
One thing you might try. Begin reinstallation of RedHat except
look for an option that will allow you reinstal LILO or GRUB.

In RedHat 8.0 there is a KDE GUI and there is a Gnome GUI. The only fact
is that RedHat replace both the kde and the gno

Not always.
Since I travel a lot and I am seldom at one location I normally use a dial up
connection.
Down load time for many of the components is normally in the 6 to 24 hour
range.
At the last linux meeting I attempted to down load RH using a T3 line.
Unfortunately there were so many others t
use reiserfs - I use it since slackware 8.0 appeared and have no complaints

Yes, but unfortunatly not when SCSI emu is used.
So if you use you cdr for both writing and reading then you could always use
ide for reading and then scsi for writing, not very efficent

You can indeed install pretty much anything. But that starts to get too

Shows how much I know about basic system design...
In fact, I was shocked to learn last night that ext2 uses linked lists
to keep track of files in a directory. Why is this? Did the guys who
wrote the file system specs go to school for computer science? I can't

When I first installed Linux in 1998, I don't remember there being any
other file system to use other than Ext2. After 2000, I went a few
years without Linux. This time around, when installing Linux, I noticed
I could use anything from Ext3 to ReiserFS to JFS etc... I steered clear
of these and c
