sir
Iam new to linux.i have 80gb harddisk and it is partioned as 10gb,10gb,30gb,30gb.In first 10gb i installed winxp sp2 and iam trying to install fedora core 4 in secound 10 gb space.what r the steps to do installation.

First of all, what filesystem did you use to make all your partitions? NTFS, fat32, linux partitions?

What tool did you use to partition your hard drive?

You have Fedora Core 4 installation disks? Do you have official disks, or did you burn them yourself from iso images?

Can you give some system specifications on your system? You need to make sure that Fedora is compatible with your hardware.

Giving more information would help about your system. Make and model number, how much ram is on the system and what you plan to do with linux would help.

Did you consult the Official Fedora Documentaion Page to assist with the installation?

I would not recommend Fedora for first time users. Giving us more information on what you are looking to do would hopefully determine if Fedora will do what you want and if your system is suited for the installation and save some potential headaches.
