Hi I'm a newbie and non-techie. I've spent much of the past 20 years on Mac, Windows 9x and other proprietary systems.
Out of longstanding dissatisfaction with Windows, I want switch to Linux. I bought Red Hat 8 For Dummies (cringe!) with two CDs, but can't figure out how to make my computer boot from the CD so I can begin the installation. I may need to change a BIOS setting (to make the CD-ROM the first device in the boot sequence), but I can't find a setup menu in XP. (I'm using a new Dell Dimension 2350.) Any suggestions? Pat
