This article is to share with you about how to deeply understand the installation of Fedora 8 system and describe it. The editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it with you. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

After a long period of study, the official version of Fedora 8 system installation has been released, and Fedora 8 system installation can improve the performance of more convenient use. Let's talk about Fedora 8 system installation. The Linux operating system is an open source operating system, which originated from an idea made in October 1991 by a student named LinusTorvalds (Linux stands for Linus's UNIX) at the University of Helsinki in Finland. Linux itself is the core part of the operating system, that is, the kernel of the operating system.

It is highly recommended that you read the Fedora 8 system installation release notes and official installation guide before you install the Fedora 8 system. One of the recommendations is to read the "frequently asked questions" before installing the system. Read the "frequently asked questions" to get the DVD image of the Fedora 8 system installation from the Fedora 8 system installation image server (or use BT). Get more information on how to download CD's and DVD.

Boot and boot the system from DVD. If you choose LiveCD, please note that the following steps may be slightly different. I am doing a custom installation of Fedora 8.

Zoning

If you have a blank hard drive or want to delete all the contents of your hard drive, you can use automatic partitioning or remove all contents and then partition

If you want to configure dual booting or retain something on your hard drive, select a custom partition. I recommend at least three partitions: one 10GB / primary partition, one 10GB / home partition, and one 1GB partition. The primary partition is where your program will be installed, and the / home partition holds all your personal data (it would be better if the partition is larger). Partitions should be at least as large as your physical memory (if you want to support features such as ACPI hibernation)

Start the boot tool

If you have a blank hard drive or want Fedora 8 to be installed as your main operating system, leave the default settings. This is also possible for dual booting with other Fedora 8 system installations, such as windows. If you want to keep windows as your main operation Fedora 8 system installation, install Grub to / partition, not to MBR. To do so, select the advanced boot option and the * sector installed to the boot partition. I use Bootpart in Windows 2000/XP to boot linux. Another alternative to Bootpart is NT OS Loader + Linux mini-HOWTO (Grub Win2K Howto is also available). I recommend this method because there is no need to change the windows system in your dual-system environment.

Note: here is a sample configuration available. This takes a lot of work, and the default option settings on MBR work.

The above is how to deeply understand and describe the installation of Fedora 8 system. The editor believes that there are some knowledge points that we may see or use in our daily work. I hope you can learn more from this article. For more details, please follow the industry information channel.
