[PlanetCCRMA] How to install RH9

[Harrison Thomas]

Hi Fernando et al

    I hadn't updated for awhile, so when I finally updated, my rh8 machine
froze at the snd-motif install. Now when I try to rpm -e the snd-motifs, the
terminal window just goes to sleep. Looks like the rpm dbase is corrupted,
SO.... I figure this is a good time to upgrade to RH9. My question is,
what's the cleanest way to do it? I have a dual os ( w2000 on c:- Redhat8 on
d:- separate physical drives.) Should I just format d:? (in windoze I would
just use fdisk to remove the partition. Is there a similar command in Linux?
Or can I just use fdisk to remove the Linux partition?)) Will RH9 just
overwrite RH8? Will it remove grub?( any gotchas there?)

Thanks for any help
    Harrison
