Hi Friends,
I got Win 98 on C: and Win XP on D: drive.I need to replace 98 with
Linux,can someone please please tell me if these are the rite steps:
>
> Make a Boot Disk, from either Win98 or WinXP.
> Boot off it and run:
> fdisk
> Delete the Win98 Partition, and Dont make another to replace it.
>
> Restart your PC with the Redhat CD 1 in the drive and it will boot off
> the CD and begin installation.
>
> When it gets to partitioning, tell it to do it all automatically, and
> use Only free-Unpartitioned space
>
