Well, I suppose I could always try that Win4Lin, which may be faster then rebooting into wind0ze. Doesn't that run a true wind0ze under Linux?

Ok I've heard mention of some super fast non-offical version of Redhat, anyone know it's name? Should I use it over regular redhat?

So if it's good to be a n00b/home user system, why does the website make it seem like it's for buisnesses and servers? Unless having a good server/buisness distro happens to have alot of spillover effects into the home market...

The other advantage to Redhat is that it's such a bigname product...

you'll also need the regular red hat CDs

Ok, Redhat it is. That XFS filesystem thingy sounds soooo cool, and Redhat is the only one that supports it. Hey, Redhat has alot of other cool things going for it too...

lazygamer:
Rather then sift around the help files, I'll just get the info straight from you guys, it's simplest for me.

Ok so download ALL the redhat 7.3 disks and the XFS disk. Then what? Do you install redhat, then install the XFS disk? Perhaps the XFS disk replaces one of the official redhat install disks?

Is it important what partition system I use? Like does it matter whether I use EXT2, EXT3, or ReiserFS? Maybe there is a brand new option I have to choose etc.

STFW!!!

Stick in the first XFS CD, then it will eventually ask you for the Red Hat ones.
