Installation Questions

[Stephen Hitchner <steveh nucleus com>]

Thanks everyone for answering my MILO questions

Here are some more questions   = )

I would like to masquerade my IP, from my Linux box to a couple of other machines.  I'm running RH 5.2, from what I have read you need a 2.2.x kernel (RH 5.2 comes with a 2.0.x kernel) would it be better to download and compile a 2.2.x kernel for RH 5.2 or should I install RH 6.0???

If I compile a kernel for 5.2 do I have to re-compile MILO for the new kernel??? or will it be ok????


Also I plan to use my machine for a basic web/ftp server, and coding and programming assignments for school. I just would like to know what people recommend for partitions.  I have two 1 Gig drives

this is what I thought
/          100M
/home      500M
/var       150M
/opt       100M
/usr/src    50M
/usr       800M
/usr/local 200M
swap       100M
Milo         2M

thanks for your help

cheers
steve
