i have just finished installing red hat 7 on my cousin`s computer, no problem at all... i`m glad to say. the beast is wonderful... it even recognised the sound card, 5 minutes from the install, and i was listening to a bob dylan cd... very different from my beloved 486 ;->.
i have only 3 problems:
* how can i `see`, mount or whatever the windows partition? do i have ro re-install all the way. everything is on a single hd, that i partitiones using fips.
* x windows, gnome, to be exactly, works like hell, it`s wonderful, except for one little and very annoying glitch, it doesn`t show the traditional x cursor, pointer.
* i have to boot linux from a diskette, is there a way to install lilo on the hard disk? do i have to reinstall everything?

sorry for the long posting, but i`m totally new to this windows & linux and `gui enabled` linux world; my 486 has only a partition with linux.
thanks in advance.
