Linux question

[Ram Pariyapurath]

Is it possible to install   Redhat Linux 8.0 prfessional on a machine (Intel
PII) which currently runs Windows 2002 on a different volume? Can the os be
chosen at start up?

Thanks

And you're asking the insight mailing list this question, because...?
What did you read which indicated that this mailing list was used for
Red Hat Linux questions?

A search for FAQ in the redhat website brought me to
http://sources.redhat.com/insight/faq.htm which suggests to use this list.

MAybe somebody should edit the web page url in the subject so it doesn't 
look so completely devoid of context.

Indeed, I see that that url is the third to be listed, after a Japanese
Faq page and the Ecos Faq page. 
No wonder we get all these requests.

You should instead look at the

http://www.redhat.com/support/resources/faqs/rhl_general_faq/FAQ.html 

page, listed a few entries below.

Thanks for explaining. We will change the Insight FAQ web page, so
that it is less ambiguous.

Humm, I now saw Elena's message to the insight mailing list.  There is a 
pointer to this page from somewhere else.

Yes, first FAQ should be what is Insight...

Regards to all,
