one or not. If you have none, answer \"No\". If you have one or more,
answer \"Yes\". A list of drivers will then pop up, from which you
will have to select one.


After you have selected the driver, DrakX will ask if you
want to specify options for it. First, try and let the driver
probe for the hardware: it usually works fine.

logically dividing the computer's hard drive capacity into separate

create partitions for Linux. You can select the disk for partitionning by
clicking on \"hda\" for the first IDE drive,

Two common partition are: the root partition (/), which is the starting
point of the filesystem's directory hierarchy, and /boot, which contains
all files necessary to start the operating system when the
computer is first turned on.

  - Boot device: Sets the name of the device (e.g. a hard disk
partition) that contains the boot sector. Unless you know specifically
otherwise, choose \"/dev/hda\".


  - Linear: Generate linear sector addresses instead of
sector/head/cylinder addresses. Linear addresses are translated at run
time and do not depend on disk geometry. Note that boot disks may not be
portable if \"linear\" is used, because the BIOS service to determine the
disk geometry does not work reliably for floppy  disks. When using
\"linear\" with large disks, /sbin/lilo may generate references to
inaccessible disk areas, because 3D sector addresses are not known
before boot time.


  - Compact: Tries to merge read requests for adjacent sectors into a
single read request. This drastically reduces load time and keeps the
map smaller. Using \"compact\" is especially recommended when booting from
a floppy disk.


  - Delay before booting default image: Specifies the number in tenths
of a second the boot loader should wait before booting the first image.
This is useful on systems that immediately boot from the hard disk after
enabling the keyboard. The boot loader doesn't wait if \"delay\" is
omitted or is set to zero.


  - Video mode: This specifies the VGA text mode that should be selected
when booting. The following values are available: 
    * normal: select normal 80x25 text mode.

system.
    Please refer to the manual for more information.


  - Precise RAM size if needed: In some cases, Linux is unable to
correctly detect all the installed RAM on  some systems. If this is the
case, specify the correct quantity. Note: a difference of 2 or 4 Mb is
normal.
