When you get a live CD from a website, it will be in a .iso file. If you're burning using Nero, you need to select "burn from image", select the ISO file and burn. To use the disc, put the disc in the drive and reset your machine. You cannot run a live CD from inside of Windows. > the install dvd is redhat core 6 test 2.

You can't find test3 as test3 doesn't exit. > ive downloaded yum and Grub i just need sumeone with the skills to > tell me what to do with it thank you Are you trying to create a dual boot machine? If you are, create a partition for Windows, install Win32 first, set it up. Next install Linux. You will get to a section which asks how you want to partition the drive. You need to keep the Windows partition and say to use the rest for Linux and to use grub as the bootloader. Install Linux at the end Linux will restart. You will be presented with a boot screen which should identify both partitions, one says Windows, the other Linux. Select Linux and let it go through it's final set up stages. Job done.
