My Inspiron 7000 arrived yesterday.  I was up late last night trying to get
Redhat Linux 5.1 to install.
I would go through fine; installing all the packages but keep freezing up in
the root password dialog.  I think it has something to do with the standby
mode, but am not sure.

Has anyone been successful installing Redhat on a similar machine.
        PII 300
        128MB RAM
        8GB disk
        DVD
        ATI Rage Pro 8MB
        3COM 10/100 ethernet PCMCIA

thanks
bill pinto

partition.  great product. even created the Linux partitions with it.
