There seem to be many reviews on Red Hat 9.0, but all seem to be written by Linux junkies who really know their stuff. What about the MS Windows Convert? They say people like the first thing they use (i.e. if you learn to drive a manual transmission, you prefer it over automatic). If this is true, how does Red Hat 9.0 introduce a novice pc user to the world of computers? I hope to answer some of those questions in this tiny review.

When i put Redhat 8.0 on my laptop, it took me at least 8 attempts before it would install correctly.
Seems to be either a problem with IDE drivers, the hardware in the laptop, out of memory errors or something, but the installer would seem to bail out, often on the same package.
The CDs had no errors, as it is now installed and running well.
The lack of the ability to simply continue a partial install, or a reliable way to skip a package is pretty poor. Error recovery is one area that most distros installers are rather poor in.
