I just installed redhat 7.3 to my laptop, a presario 17XL, p3 700 256mb ram, and boy is it different than winblows, I was wondering if theres a learning guide or a walkthru on basic operations (System config, etc), cant find network settings, try to set up dial out connection, it is all too new to me!

Hey, it installed without any problems too!

Ok well since I only installed redhat 7.3 one time, and it went on my laptop, I didnt use it for more than 2 hours and installed winblows xpee, Well I have my one bp6, and I was thinking on making it my lil linux beast.
SO time to learn linux somehow, right? Before I continue, do I need to get some drivers for a promise controller for my drive I plan on using?

Looks like you will need some drivers from Promise. Check out this link:

It may depend on what Promise controller you are using. But then, newer versions of Linux distros may have some support built-in, now.
