I can get it to install when = using the workstation option because it gives me the choice of = automatically making the partitions. When I try to use the custom = instillation I don't have the option of automatically setting up the = partitions. I've assigned 31MBs for the mount point, 1024 Mbs for the = swap space and the remainder of the ten GBs for the user partition. The = next screen asks me if I want to boot from the mount point or the boot = record. I choose the master boot record on hda1. It gets to the = formatting screen and gives me an error telling me that an error has = occurred which is probably due to low free disc space. If the full = installation of Linux takes approximately three and a half gigs then why = is it running out of space? Could it be that its installing Linux on = the rong partition? Next question, I was able to install Linux by using the workstation = option. When I got to the bash prompt I tried to install the curnel. I = had about eight conflicts. I obviously got the rong curnel. Can = someone tell me how I find out what curnel version I have? I presume = that I just download the version corresponding with the the version on = my system? Thanks=20 Darragh ------=_NextPart_000_000C_01C23A52.BFE8A7A0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2600.0" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Hello all,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I've being trying to install Red = hat.
