Hi, I'm what you would call a Linux newbie started exploring Linux with RedHat 9 (don't worry my question will about SuSE) which I installed on a PC which is triple boot (two versions of XP and RedHat 9) using Grub. I'd like to compare SuSE with RedHat and would like to install SuSE 8.2 (or do you recommend waiting for 9) : my question is what partions do I need and can I e.g. (re)use the RedHat 9 swap partion (512MB) as well as the /boot partition (what would be the minimum space needed on /boot). I would keep both Linuxes and select the one I want to explore using Grub. My 80 GB disk looks like : XP (38GB, NTFS); RH9 /boot (102MB, ext3); RH9 SWAP (512MB); RH9 / (9.8GB, ext3); free 27 GB. The second XP system is on a second 20GB disk. Also where can I download the CD iso image for SuSE 8.2 ? All advice and comments welcome. Kind regards, Frederic
