All,
I've been playing with Fedora Core 3 and ubuntu - all on separate partitions on /dev/hdb while win2k sits on /dev/hda. Grub is installed on MBR.
Interestingly, while both Ubuntu and fedora had no difficulty finding windows - fedora did not find ubuntu (and ubuntu did not find rh8 (which preceded fedora)). It could be something to do with /boot (/dev/hda1) getting formatted on install. :-)
I have a few questions on Ubuntu and fedora - I want to change to a less memory intensive window manager. I've heard of a few .. but how do I swap to them ?
Secondly, the startup of both Ubuntu and Fedora take considerable time - I mean minutes. On a standalone system, used for dialup internet, what are some services that can be stopped ?
Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.
Regards, Rajnish
