My StarOffice came on CD with the LINUX package. The readme files
called for running a file as root which installed the program suite. I
then had to go in as a regular user, not root, to install for that
user. Actually I think they were links to the program for that user.

Drives include hda = 1.2 Gb

Sounds like a lot of good hardware help here. I'd also advise doing one
of two things to learn about networking. Either get and learn all the
Network related howto's of the net, (some are more current than others
however.) The other option, and I'm doing both, is get a good text on
it. I've go

hdb and hdc that hold /usr, /home, swap and so forth.
After I play with it a while and it goes away, I'll take that as the probable
cause.

A few questions:
1. How old is older? Depending on the hardware, it might be easier to
use an older version such as the 5 vice 6 series of Red Hat. Also, you
need to check how much drive space is needed and if it's available.
Best bet is to check out the HOWTO series and the text files with the

Yes you can read files from different OS's partitions in a single system and

Hi Glenn,
New here myslelf and very new to LINUX. You might want to check and see if
the program is already installed, depending on how you set it up, it might
be there, you just have to tell it to load the GUI during the boot process.
With the Mandrake 6.0 there's an obvious item on that during
