Installing RHL9.0 in dual boot environment

7 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/installing-rhl9-0-in-dual-boot-environment.25430/

I am using windows 98 /win xp as my OSs ,Now I want to install Red Hat Linux 9.0 in one of my last partition (i am having 3 partitions in total).

I have already created a partition of ~5GB

I also want to keep win 98 & my XP.

I dont have the bootable disk of linux ,but i am having 3 installation disks.

Can u give me some commands which i have to give during installation?

Can you guide me?

Thanx a lot!

Please do not install RH9 its old and once you compare it with windows XP you will dislike Linux from the start. I would recommend install suse 10 or some new distro to get all the features (lipstick). If u are in Delhi u can take distro from me.

i m in bangalore!

YOu can get most distributions in .iso format in comp magazines like LFY,digit or whatever.try Ubuntu or Debian Linux.if u r feeling

like a n00b,get madriva linux or PCLinuxOS which this month's LFY got.try with command line for having a better understanding of Linux.so Best of LUX
