That was about 11 years ago, so my memory of that is foggy and incomplete.

I installed windows-7 first, probably from a CD purchased from a local (near \
Washington, D.C) store.

Then using either a CD burned by a co-worker who was a sys. admin. (most likely), or \
a CD that came with a thick paperback introductory sys. admin. book, or a CD that I \
burned from windows, I installed Fedora.  It took a few tries.  Then one day the \
                installation process just worked (seemingly like magic).  That's all \
                that I recall.
