Hello there, Please can anyone help me I'm looking for and installation disk for Redhat linux 9. I've been to their site but the file I saw there is a little more than 1.5mb (so 'couldnt fit in the floppy disk). I'm just a newbie in Linux, can anyone suggest to me on how to begin? (my hard disk is partitioned into 2 parts with win2000 running on one and intending to install red hat linux 9 on the other) . your help is most welcomed.

First of all, this is the wrong forum; You should have posted your message on the Linux message board. Linux is NOT Unix.
Check if your BIOS has the CDROM as first device to boot from. If your BIOS can't boot from your CDROM, then go to www.redhat.com/docs and read "Red Hat Linux Installation guide. You would have to create a boot floppy disk. You can do it cat image.img > /dev/fd0 or dd if blah blah. Please read the docs at Red Hat before doing anything and asking.
