Hi guys:

I would like to learn how to use Linux now! Could you please tell me
what differences between Red Hat Linux 9 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux
are? As a discontinued product, Red Hat Linux 9 is more economically
efficient...since I am just want to learn the basic concept about it
now, is it OK for me to practise Red Hat Linux 9 first, rather than
buying Red Hat Enterprise Linux? Are they similar for a newbie?

Thanks

Joey,


Fedora Core is a better option. The Fedora Core project is more up-to-date. LVM for example is not in Red Hat 9 (if I recall corectly). Fedoara Core is also free of charge, and it supports much more new hardware.

I recommend chosing between FC 5 or FC 6.


Kind regards,
