1 Hi I am new to Linux and have some questions about Linux Gentoo
2
3 A friend of mine downloaded Gentoo for me because, he has a faster internet connection.
4 But I think he might have downloaded the wrong one; i686 Gentoo ISO from www.linuxiso.org
5 because it goes really fast and I can't find a resemblance with the install guide;
6 x86 install instructions and almost every command is denied .
7
8 my pc is a:
9 Intel Pentium III GHz Celeron Processor
10 Memory:
11 320 MB of RAM
12 Harddisks:
13 C: 6 Gb
14 D: 40 Gb
15
16 1. Do I have the right version???
17
18 2. I have a pci modem that is not detect during install
19 how do I install my modem???
20
21 it is a; Generic 56k HCF Data Fax Modem (says windows)
22
23 3. or is it not possible to run Gentoo with this modem?
24
25 thx,
26 Pietjan

28 PS: please keep it plain and simple because, I am completely new to Linux and
29 I am Dutch so English is not my strongest point, ok?
30 and maybe I can help you to translate Gentoo to Dutch...Get more from the Web. FREE MSN Explorer download : http://explorer.msn.com
