New System Partitions
|
|
| Mick Willmot 2004-02-25, 9:39 am |
| I've just purchased a new system, ( Pentium 4 2.8GHz, 512MB DDR SDRAM, 120GB
HDD), which I plan to run RH9 on. My first linux computer. Can someone
please give me some sugestions on how many, and what size partitions I
should create, and what I would mount on said partitions.
Thanks in advance,
Mick

On http://www.redhat.com/docs/ you find documentation. The partition
question is answered there too.

Why not go with Fedora Core 1?

But keep in mind that RH9 reaches EOL (end of lifetime) by Redhat at
31.03.2004. This is soon! You will only get security updates by the Fedora
Legacy project.

Make that 30.04.2004; http://www.redhat.com/apps/support/errata/
This is still soon however, but 30 days is 30 days ;-)
