Let’s Give Linux a try.

by noonan . Updated 24 years, 8 months ago

I have a PII 533 128MB of Ram sitting idle. I’ve read and see a lot of hype regarding Linux and I want to see what it is all about. This week is slow so I have the time to play a bit. (rare!!) What exactly do I need to do to install Red Hat Linux onmy machine. I went to Red Hat’s website and downloaded the two images. I have Easy CD Creator loaded on my regular machine and the images have the same icon/file ext. as an cd cdreator file. Do I just click the image and let the software burn the cdas is? Or is there something I need to do? What type of partirion do I need on the disk. Fat32? How do I actually kick off the install and get Linux up and running on that machine? 1000pts for a moderately detailed how-to here. Thanks.
