Hi
Thanks - Yesterday I Installed Redhat 8.0 with no issues and will download and install the fedora core from within that. Additionally - after re-reading the docs - I will need to upgrade my RAM before I do this, I only have 128M currently and I read I need a minimum of 256 M.
Thanks for your help.
