Paul, can I use also lilo rather than grub on the FC3 partition that I know
better ?
Now, Paul I do not know what is you feeling regarding the comparison of
Mandrake and Fedora ; you see I have bee using Mandrake since the very
begining of my Linux experience ; now I would like to try another
distribution ; I was thinking of Debian but apparently Fedora is a new comer
on the market that can attract me ; my opinion is that besides stability what
matter the most with the distribution is the capability to update safely your
present system ; I mean here to be able to load and test something new , then
to decide to keep it or not ; Debian can do that ; Mandrake cannot : if you
load something that does not work to go back to previous stable version of
you setup might be troublesome !
