[ale] From Admin list: In desparate need of guidance...

[aaron]

Got a request for assistance from a Kelly Williams from McDonough, Georgia.

If there is anyone in the area who can help him install RH in a dual boob 
config, please reply to them at:

Since I don't do windoze, about the only suggestion I coud make was to go for 
the best case  scenario: forget the Micro$haft stuff, reformat the system 
drive and do a straight GNU/Linux install. ;-)

On a more serious note I added that they might consider Mandrake 9.0 or  9.1, 
since that distro's install process provides some automatic partitioning  
features for dual boot systems.

My name is  Kelly Williams and I live in the McDonough area.

As a nod to my  anti-establishment values and a thirst for more knowledge I 
recently purchased Red Hat Linux with the intention of creating a dual-boot 
set-up on my computer. I understand most all that I have read and seen thus 
far in my venture but I have encountered a problem in the installation which 
finds no  mention in the installation guide. What I'm getting at is that I 
would like  ask for a referal to someone as close to me as possible that 
wouldn't mind  taking the time (and no small amount of pity) to offer 
guidance. Any help in  the matter would be greatly appreciated.
