[SLE] Installation info for Newbie
Hi, Just got a copy of SuSe 6.1 which I will install on a fairly old 486dx next weekend. Seeing as how everyone else has already got Linux installed (hopefully!), are there any pitfalls or hints that you would like to pass on about installing SuSe Linux. I've read the relavent bits in the book which came with the distribution, but if you have any other bits of info I would be eternaly grateful. If there is another place where I can get this info, please let me know.

If it does't hace a cdrom , borrow one , then make sure you select the least amount of packages the first time throgh if you have a small hd , and make sure you have lots of time , or just let it start , and check on it every once in a while. Take it slowly and think it through , as it takes forever to do it agien. Better yet get hold of a P75 or p100. Got one this weekend , p100 2.2 gig drive W 32 meg ram for 75.00 . Picked up an 8x new cdrom for 15.00. Hop to get it set up this evening. At 07:03 AM 11/1/1999 +0100, Nik Gare wrote:
