I am about to try to install Red Hat onto a Compac server with a RAID, an
old system with a 486 and now 32M RAM.  I have BSware 6.1 but have not
been at meetings to pick up 6.2.  Best Buy has the Standard RD 6.2 for
$30, a deluxe version for $50, and a Professional version for >$100.

Any suggestions on whether I should spring the $30 for 6.2 (Bruce's
comment says I should)?  Does the Deluxe have any features I can't
download?  Has anyone installed LINUX on a Compac server?

Looking forward to learning from your experience,

	Best,   Ralph    deal@kzoo.edu
