Hi. I was interested in installing Linux on my home machine, but I have a
few questions about installing Linux. 

1) Is it true that you need to install Linux (or the version that you're
installing on Sat) on the first 8 GB on the hard drive? 
2) Is it okay to just bring my box to the Install Fest on Sat? I have a 19"
Mitsubishi monitor that weighs about 55 pounds that I would rather not move
(especially since I don't have a car and it's a 15 min walk to Boelter). 
3) I need Red Hat 6.0 (or another type of Linux that uses the same kernel)
for my CS 111: OS class. Will you be installing something like that? My TA
told me that anything higher than Red Hat 6.0 would not work for the CS
projects that I need to do this quarter.

Thanks for answering my questions.
