Ok, I have a couple problems. The first problem is with my Red Hat 9 computer and a Linksys WPC11 Wireless LAN card. I CAN'T GET IT TO WORK :(. I downloaded the driver (or what I thought was) for the Linksys card, but I still can't seem to get things to work. Can someone give me some pointers, or point me to a good driver? My other question is about my XP laptop and Red Hat 9....can I install Red Hat on my laptop without having to partition it? I really don't want to go through the entire formatting process again. Thanks for the help

Always, without exception, search Google before posting any question, anywhere. You would have found this: http://linux.oldcrank.com/tips/wpc11/ Linux (in this case RedHat) requires at least a root and swap partition. There are a few Linux distros that can run off of FAT32 volume and you could also try a live-linux CD distro (like Knoppix). Use linux.org and distrowatch.com to find these. Of course, if you have existing partitions (as you say "entire formatting process again"), then you can reuse these.

You must partition if you wanna run linux not as a "on-CD" distro, however you could use something like "Partition Magic" to save you birth pains of having to rebuild your personal settings on your XP box. BACKUP!!!
