Installation Complete
Congratulations! Your Red Hat Linux 8.0 installation is now complete!
The installation program will prompt you to prepare your system for
reboot. Remember to remove any installation media (diskette in the
diskette drive or CD in the CD-ROM drive) if they are not ejected
automatically upon reboot.
If you do not have a boot loader installed and configured, you will
need to use the boot disk you created during the installation now.
After your computer's normal power-up sequence has completed,
you should see the graphical boot loader prompt, at which you can do any of
the following things:
Press [Enter] — causes the default boot entry
to be booted.
Select a boot label, followed by [Enter] —
causes the boot loader to boot the operating system corresponding to the
boot label. (Press [?] or [Tab] at LILO's
text mode boot loader prompt for a list of valid boot labels.)
Do nothing — after the boot loader's timeout period, (by
default, five seconds) the boot loader will automatically boot the
default boot entry.
Do whatever is appropriate to boot Red Hat Linux. You
should see one or more screens of messages scroll by. Eventually, you
should see a login: prompt or a GUI login screen (if you
installed the X Window System and chose to start X automatically).

begin with the Official Red Hat Linux Getting Started Guide (available online at http://www.redhat.com/docs/
if not included as part of your boxed set), which covers topics relating to
the basics of your system and is an introduction to using Red Hat Linux.
If you are a more experienced user looking for information on
administration topics, you may find the Official Red Hat Linux Reference Guide to
be more helpful.
If you are looking for information on system configuration, you may
find the Official Red Hat Linux Customization Guide to be helpful.
