I am trying to get into this whole linux thing and have grabbed a book with a full guide to everything plus red hat 8.0. A few questions:
I know it has to be installed on its own partition and i know that fips does not work on NTFS hard disks, which mine is. Does anyone know which freeware programs will do a nondestructive repartition on my drive so i can install red hat? I need XP on there as well (for the moment)
I've read on this forum that theres a red hat 9.0. if i install 8.0 and mess about with that for a bit, can i upgrade to 9.0 or do i have to format and start again?
This is my first post and i would appreciate any help getting me started, because from what i hear linux is the way to go.
Cheers,
Bob Shop
