I dont want to use it anymore on one of my systems... If it is a component that was installed via rpm do the following: Find out, what the exact name of the installed component is with "rpm -qa | grep gmail" for example. That will return the exact name including the version no. and such. For example something like "qmail_1.4-i386" Then do the uninstall with "rpm -e qmail_1.4-i386" If I also want to uninstall the FC1 completely from my system and install another os, eg, windown os. How will I go about it? Slip in the bootable install cd of another os and install it. Easy as pie. Consider backing up your data. How can I also be able to access my diskette on FC1 system? "mount /mnt/floppy" as root BUT: All this could have been solved by two quick google searches or a look through the archives. So, please: Start using search engines !!!
