Remember I had a lot of trouble installing Fedora Core 1 and dual booting with WinXP about a month ago. I ended up formatting the HD and reinstalling WinXP.

I thought I would let you know that my second attempt went well. Mind you I fitted an extra HD, just for Linux, which made everything simpler. Fedora is running, dualbooting fine with WinXP. I did have to use an old external modem, as the internal one (Conexant) was not being recognised by Fedora. So I had a bit of fun finding that out. I do like the look of Fedora. There are still many things I have to learn, but am sure it will all become clear. I found some very good basic and a bit more advanced study material at: training.bytebot.net

Learning from current posts and searching through old Press F1 posts often gives the answer to my computer queries.

Thanks to all,
Antonia

You had a bit of a rough start with installing Fedora, but you had the determination to see it through. I am sure you will enjoy your Fedora OS. There is always stuff to learn using Linux which is half the fun and adds to the challenge.

That site you posted the to URL looks good. :)

You can find heaps of how-to etc here as well - FedoraNEWS (http://fedoranews.org/).
