Tha_Rainman Posted April 13, 2003 Report Share Posted April 13, 2003 We were trying to find Redhat some time ago. Apparently Flight Simulator 2002 runs like a dream on it!! Here are the mirrors to get the iso's. There's an ftp server for it right here in SG too . http://www.redhat.com/download/mirror.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PC-fre@k Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 I tested Madrake 9.0 AND WOO IT SUCKS MAN!!! dunno about redhat... But it is still Linux.... <__< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Burns Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 red hat 9 is great you should try it... idunno about madrake though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THA_monkey Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 After thes damned exams, I will probably install linux on my new computer (along with WinXP DUH!!!) Do you guys reccomend putting it on a seperate harddrive, creating a new partition or just putting it in the same partition (can this be done?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC-fre@k Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 I think that can't be done. Win XP uses NTFS, Linux doesn't understand NTFS, and uses 3 other kind of partitions... So you have to make 1 NTFS partition (like on a 40GB, 20GB NTFS) and leave the other part of the HDD empty. Redhat will make his partitions during setup (mandrake did). Euhm, wil try redhat then...

Tha_rooster Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 lemme get this right you need to make a FAT partition first before you can install linux?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC-fre@k Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 nope Just make NO partition for redhat, he makes his own (3 sorts, dunno what kind of partition they are...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THA_monkey Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Thanks for the help, I think i may just install it on its own hard drive to save the hassle, how big does it need to be, and would it be able to read the other hdd with windows on (access mp3s/images etc.) 8<$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC-fre@k Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 dunno about that, I don't think it reads NTFS (normally, but updates should fix it I think/hope) I needed to be 2 GB min and because it makes 3 partition I had to make the available space 5 GB (2 - 1 -2) I remember the 1 GB was for the pagefile (Linux makes a partition for everything...)
