<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi again,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>So far, the consensus seems to be to install Windows first, then </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Linux. What I've done so far is fdisked and formatted using the utilities </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>coming with Win98 and nothing else (it was getting really late this morning </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>;), so it's not too late to use something else. I've used Disk Druid when </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I installed RH 5.2 on my old PC, so I'm familiar with that. Is that or </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>something else (I know there are other options for fdisking the hard drive </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>and setting up the partitions) what I should use to set up the </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>partitions? I don't think Disk Druid even came with the RH 7.3 although </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>that's what I read from the Sam's book RHL 7.2 Unleashed with that version.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>If it seems I'm being really paranoid, I probably am. I just don't want to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>mess this up and make things worse than they already are, but I do want to </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>get this set up so I can really start using Linux and learning the best way </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I can...by using it.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Also, I do believe Win98 uses a FAT32 partition...am I wrong on </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>that? Seems like that was one of M$'s big selling points for upgrading to it.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks again,</FONT>
</P>
