>This chapter will detail the procedures needed to install Red Hat
|
|
6.1 onto an Intel system; the procedures are similar whether you choose to
|
|
install using either GUI- or text-based installation. Since much of this
|
|
information is already well documented in the Red Hat User's Guide
|
|
(provided as a paper manual in the <SPAN

I've skimmed over much of the details. However, there are a few things
|
|
which I think are lacking in the Red Hat guide, and therefore I will
|
|
attempt to cover those items in greater detail.</P
