How to Install Linux Fedora

DISTRO LINUX
As we know Redhat in November 2003 announced that it will not be released and supports the free version of Linux again. Therefore RH9.0 is the latest version of Red Hat distro berlambang this. They will concentrate on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. But that does not mean we can no longer use products from the community RH. Instead, they launched the Fedora project, which is a community project sponsored by the RH. We can say that Fedora Core (FC yah so then we briefly) is the RH10, except:
- It 's a community project. Pendevelopannya happen in a public mailing list.
- Official support only lasts for 6-8 months to release. This indicates that we update our FC every 6-8 months to still be able to get support.
- If you want to update every 6-8 months, then there is an effort called Fedora Legacy Project, which aims to provide an important patch2 associated with safety as long as possible.
- FC Versi2 published date, not based on whether that version is ready or not.

Ok, now we enter the heart of this article are the installation instructions step by FC3. FC3 was released November 8, 2004 with feature2 among others: Kernel 2.6.9, X.org 6.8.1, KDE 3.3.0 is, Gnome 2.8.0 and GCC version 3.4.2 and 4.0. Wirelessnya also improved driver support.

Okay, here we are. Bahan2 hypothesis that there must be:
1. At least you are familiar with computers, so as to know which operating system partition.
2. A computer, preferably a ramnya over 128 MB if you want to install Xwindows as KDE and Gnome.
3. FC3 CDs (of course) that there communitynya 4CD version, more 4CD RPM, and a recovery CD.
4. A blank hard disk. In this article we will learn from those who once simple. But if you're interested in creating dualboot, had the article. Search only in arinet by keyword: dualboot.
5. preferred reading comics (the point will be indicated later). :)

1. fc01
Insert the CD-1 CD-ROM and boot your computer. Make sure the boot sequence in BIOS is set to boot from CDROM. Screen is displayed on the screen by Fedora Core. Click the Enter key to continue.

2. fc02
FC asked if we wanted to do a test of our CD FC3. If you want fast, choose skip.

3. fc0000
Graphical installation screen appeared here. Click Next. On the left is to help the installation process. Please dibaca2.

4. fc0001
Select language. Here we take Home. If you want, can select another language.

5. fc0002
Select the keyboard. Useful if we use a special keyboard like a keyboard mandarin, French, arabic, etc.. If the language we select Home, then we just use the keyboard selection of U.S. Home.

6. fc0003
installation. There are four choices: Personal Desktop, Workstation, Server and Custom. The only difference is the personal desktops and workstations: Workstation installs also tools2 development and system administration. In this article we have chosen the server installation. Actually perbedaan2 jenis2 between this installation mainly just on what packages are installed automatically selected partition and division if you choose automatic partitioning. So even though we will install the server, this time we will also install XWindows paket2 as KDE, Gnome and Xfce. So once the pat two flies. Learn how to set the server while trying to cool and Gnome2.6 KDE3.3. :) Click Next.

7. fc0004
Disk Partitioning. Here we provided two options, namely: automatic and manual. Here we akam try manually. Ready? :)

8. fc0005
There is a message that if you want to reformat your hard drive? Answer yes. When we were in the hard disk has no other partition, such as in a scenario that we will make a dual-boot, then the image will Appear as fc0006.

9. fc0006
Installation disk. Here is shown the structure our hard drive. At this moment in our article because we use the entire hard drive capacitation, it appears there is only one partition. When we do a dual boot, it will be visible to other existing partisi2. Click on "Free" and then click "New".

10. fc0007
Once you click New, and then the window to set the partition you want to do. In this article we will create: /, / home and swap. In fact the minimum that must exist in the Linux partition is / and swap. But it would be nice / home do on a separate partition, so if you want to reformat the Linux sewaktu2 us, then we can save our data are in / home. Within this framework we set the partition fc0007. Specify size in MB, and click OK. Oh yes, the name of the mountain pointnya in most of the available fields.

11. fc0008
Make /home. Klik OK.

12. fc0009
Create a swap. To select the swap partition. Swap Click the "File System Type" and select. There is a further step in making this exchange, that is: we do not determine the amount of swap space manually, but click the option "Fill to maximum allowable size. Clicking on this option, then you "spend" the rest of the existing hard disk swap, so we do not need to manually calculate what the rest of the existing hard drive swap. Obviously, right? Suppose you have 10 GB hard drive, and to give the 6Gb /, 3.5 GB for / home, it's time to share that does not mean the rest of 500MB, 3.5 GB and 6GB sizes, because it is not round is 6 GB and 3.5 GB, and no means unanimous swapnya 500MB. Instead we calculate the manual and there is less likely, you should use the "Fill to maximum allowable size.

13. fc0012
Display when choosing type of file system type: ie the swap to make it more clear. Ahem .. guns actually really, but because of the excess nangkep image. Hehe ... yah sorry.

14. fc0014
When finished making pointnya mount, it will show everything as it is in this picture. Click Next.

Loarder Boot Configuration. If in a dual boot scenario, it will be seen also from other OS boot loader that is in our hard drive. Click Next.

16. fc0016

18. fc0018
Firewall configuration. When asked if you want to activate the firewall. We turn it on. And a service that we want to enable the firewall. In this case, SSH, HTTP (Web), FTP and SMTP (mail). Later we can set in more detail again. We also note that in this setting no FC3 SELinux. This is a new feature in security, permit. Click Next.

19. fc0019
Additional language support. We can install additional support for other languages. So suppose we want to be able to read dokumen2 in another language, then we need to install the language they want. Here again we are asked to determine the default language of our system. In this case we select Home.

20. fc0020
Time zone selection. Use the mouse to click on the city where we live. In this case Jakarta. But if not, then we piluh city that is in a timezone with us alone.

21. fc0021
Set Root Password. Extra attention is needed here. Create a password at least 6 characters. Use a mixture of letters, numbers, lowercase letters, capital, symbol, and lain2 difficult for others to guess. Do not use birth dates, name of boyfriend, ATM pin, etc ... :)

22. fc0022
Package group selection. Well, here is what you want to install anything. Being the only point of reference is to a server, we installed paket2 XWindows, office, etc., it is not necessary to or associated with the server for security. But because we are in a learning phase in our local PC, then we will install the package server, X Windows, and the office too:) Or if you want, let alone to install the complete package.

23. fc0023.

25. fc0025
Installing packages. The installation process is already running. Time needed kira2 about 15 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on your PC specs. It would be nice if we had to spend time reading comics:) But jauh2 from a PC, because you will be prompted to insert CD2, CD3, etc..

26. fc0026
After the installation process is complete. FC3 will boot, remove the CD from the CDROM. After booting the display will appear like this.

27. fc0027
Still the booting process. Will start to look service2 run, there are OK and FAILED. In this article because we are set to use DHCP to IPnya but because there is no DHCP server can be reached then failed. No apa2. About looks, cool right? Like on a movie screen. :)
