I would first like to thank all of you who responded to my post with information and suggestions. I bought the Infomagic CDROM with the RedHat4.0, Slackware96, Debian distributions, XFreee86 3.2,and Metro-X server among other goodies. I started out with the RedHat installation and did not have any problems installing it, then I installed the Metro-X server without anyproblems except an oversight on my part. LILO installed and worked first time around. Now I have Linux/XWindows system working like a charm! Just to recap, here is the hardware on which I installed; Cyrix 133MHz CPU Matrox Millennium video card with 4MB RAM Idek IIyama Vision MAster Pro 17" monitor Toshiba IDE CDROM Teac Floppy 2 G Hard Drive Sundar P.S: Infomagic's customer service has been great. A completely broken (during shipping) CD jewel case(6 CD) was replaced in 2 days by priority mail.
