I'm somewhat intimidated by the new concepts and perceptions encompassing Fedora but I'm excited to be able to dig into a few area of expertise. </li><li> I've jumped in with a dual-boot install. I thought that all I had to do was to install Fedora on freed-up space on a single hard drive already occupied by Microsoft Vista. However, I soon discovered that the two systems handle "primary" drives somewhat differently and that the only way I could get a viable working copy of Fedora on my computer was to install it on what Vista designated as part of the "extended" drive (this variant doesn't appear to be addressed in the installation guide).</li></ul> Goals - Where I could help Since I'm so new to Linux and Fedora I am less likely to miss or overlook steps that a Fedora expert takes for granted. I'm also more likely to query what appears to be outdated documentation (e.g. the software's recommendation to follow what is actually a mandatory procedure to create a user name and password during installation). At the same time, I recognize I have somewhat of a learning curve to overcome so probably the best place to use me is in testing and editing of current material. Availability I'm between semesters and have plenty of free time between now and May 9 to devote myself to this project (at least 40 hrs a week). When I return to school my time will be limited to only a few hours a week.
