So it comes with Red Hat? The only thing is I'm installing 8.0...because from what I understand 9.0 is like a beta...



That's what I've been told...

Okay, not going so smoothly...Grub will not boot to XP (even though I told it where XP was) and Linux has some sort of error when it boots up...hold for error...

Linux error:



I cannot start the X Server....



I can't read any of the options, I assume one is yes and one is no, to view the "server output."

Why would you need one?

You use the repair feature on the windows xp install cd.
