Welcome, I started using Linux awhile ago and Running Linux by O'reilly
really helps. And why don't you just do a fresh install with 9? And last but
not least, did you properly install the iso's using windows? Check here for
ore info about burning ISO's. http://linuxiso.org/viewdoc.php/howtoburn.html

just joined your group and am looking forward to learning linux. 

 

1.i am wondering where you would suggest that i go to learn the basics of
linux. there is a great learning center called webtorials.com for
networking, voip, etc and i was wondering if such a resource existed for the
linux community. perhaps a certain library book in the sonoma system. 

 

i have seem some tutorials but they all assume varying levels of linux
prequal. i guess i need to start at the very beginning.... pretty fast
learner.

 

2. i have installed redhat 7.3 and want to upgrade to redhat 9.0. i
downloaded and burned the 3 CD images from redhat but the upgrade screen
eludes me. i also put the bootdisk.img on CD #1. hmmm. i must admit i
downloaded and burned the images on a xp machine because the linux was not
cooperating yet. is this the problem?

 

 

any advice would be great. 

 

thanks
