First, you should tell us which Windows it is. If it's WinXP Pro or Home, or which WinVista it is.
If it's Vista you should think about Ubuntu's Wubi, or do like me and use hard drive pull out drawers for C: hard drives and use an USB drive to share files between the different OSs you decide to try. Others will point you to further resources: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/804 http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080224-wubi-arrives-a-look-at-ubuntu-8-04-alpha-5.html http://neosmart.net/forums/showthread.php?t=349 http://apcmag.com/how_to_dualboot_vista_with_linux_vista_installed_first.htm http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/suse-linux-help/87751-help-install-fedora-suse-dual-boot-along-win-vista.html http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_vista_and_xp_with_vista_installed_first__the_stepbystep_guide.htm Good luck, Joan in Reno --- On Tue, 11/4/08, dhiren_4ever <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: dhiren_4ever <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [LINUX_Newbies] windows installed,now planning to install Red Hat Linux To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, November 4, 2008, 8:31 AM Hi, I have a new PC on this June 2008.
