Fine. Fedora and RH5 don't have the same binaries and such, so other than sharing /boot and the swap, you really need enough free disk space (e.g. a partition) to install Fedora into. If you used LVM, you may be able to shrink your existing RH5 installation to free up space for the Fedora partition. Post the output of "fdisk -l" and the output of both "mount" and "df -h" so we can see just what your system has going on. > 2) I want to have the option to boot into Fedora or the RH5 in GRUB Fine. Entries in /boot/grub/grub.conf can handle that. The Fedora entries will need to specify the new partition as the "root=" parameter to the kernel line. > 3) I have a 1024MB swap in RH5 can I used it in Fedora? or It need another 1024MB swap Swap is swap. Yes, it can be used in both. > 4) I have a 100MB boot in RH5 can I used it in Fedora? or It need another 100MB boot If there's enough room in /boot to handle the Fedora kernels and initrd images along with the RH5 kernels and initrds, yes, it can be used. > Imran Shafiq Khan > > --- On Thu, 10/7/08, Karl Pearson <karlp@ourldsfamily.com> wrote: > From: Karl Pearson <karlp@ourldsfamily.com> > Subject: Re: install fedora on RedHat > To: redhat-install-list@redhat.com > Date: Thursday, 10 July, 2008, 9:31 PM > > On Thu, July 10, 2008 12:44 am, imran shafiq wrote: >> Hi Bob >> Thanks for reply.
