@Vignesh :
How do you install different Linux distro's Vignesh. Each thing asks for it's own / mountpoint nd erases the other distro. How did u go abt when u installed ur distroes? And it wud b nice if u can give your method in points ie like tutorial.

If Ubuntu does not have a package for XFCE, you could get the XFCE graphical installer from www.xfce.org , and install it. You need to make sure you have its dependencies installed.

I went to their website.They have a graphical installer thats 18 Mb so I can`t imagine downloading that on a dialup.


@Satissh

You have to make seperate ext3 partitions for each .Tell me what are the distros you want to install I will give you a tutorial.

Actually I heard problems with mandrake ,suse an d fedora.Why don`t we remove fedora and mandrake.We will start with rh9 and suse9.3.

First install rh9 and then suse by the way do not install the boot loader in suse.
