There are may people selling copies of the RedHat distribution for only a
few $ and is you want you can actually download the whole thing for free
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/old-releases/redhat-5.2/i386/ is one source).
But, if you have never installed or used Linux I would H I G H L Y suggest
that you get the Official RedHat Installation Guide book. Without it you
have very little chance of getting Linux installed and running.
So, considering the book is almost mandatory you may as well run off to your
local software vendor and pick up a boxed set of RedHat 5.2 which includes
the book and a number of application. Besides, buying the real boxed RedHat
set helps support some of the people that are trying to make Linux easier to
install and use. I would also suggest not tarrying as the RedHat version
that is current is 6.0 and at this point you can not run EMC on the kernel
that is included in 6.0 from what I have been told.
