=OPS235 Lab 1 GNU/Linux Installation - Fedora 16=
==Introduction==
In this lab, you are going to install the Fedora (GNU/Linux Distribution) to your hard disk from DVD.
You need a number of hard disk partitions/physical volumes for this installation: /dev/sda1 (300M), /dev/sda2 extended partition, /dev/sda5 (300M), all created in Lab 1. You will create 4 new physical volumes during this lab.
After the installation, you will collect baseline information about your Fedora GNU/Linux system, do some post installation configuration to prepare your system for the remainder of the labs, manipulate the GRUB configuration, and start using the system.
