    hi i am a newbie and i wanted to install fedora core 3
    on my dell - 128 Mb RAM, pentium III, 20 gig hardrive,
    with win me currently installed on it. i don't want to
    keep windows on it. do i format the hardrive before i
    install fedora? how do i format? what size should the
    partitions be? i saw on list that someone recommended
    making a separate partition for a future os or distro,
    room for swap space, and room for the general area of
    the hardrive. is this true? how much space should be
    in each?
    thanks alot!
    -david
