Hey Folks,
Gotta stupid question, I've got SuSe Linux 6.2 and 8.0 Professional. Funny thing is both OSs were given to me. I'm talking about, the seal wasn't even broken. I know that Linux is a whole lot cheaper than Microsoft but why would someone just throw these Systems. I want to install the 8.0 and would like a couple of recommendations in getting it to install. I've tried with 6.2 but either I am doing something wrong with the format or I'm not copying the bootdisk correctly or I'm missing a step in the installation. I've even tried booting from the CD.
I still have 98SE as a backup just in case.
Is there anything I have to setup or prepare first either in the BIOS or in the HARD DRIVE that'll make the OS work?
