Those of you that have installed Red Hat Linux/Intel before and are in a hurry to get started need only boot from a boot diskette, and select the desired installation method. If you are installing from an FTP site, a hard disk, or you'll be using a PCMCIA card during the installation, you'll be prompted to insert a supplemental diskette. In either case, answer all questions as they are presented.
If you are attempting to install Red Hat Linux for either the Alpha or the SPARC, you really should read Chapter 2. It will refer you to information specific to your non-Intel-based system.
