Hey does anyone know how to take screenshots during a
RedHat 9 Install? I've done it with mandrake 9 using the F2 key, im thinking it could be the same but I wanna be certain.

It depends on the window manager/desktop environment you're using. The way I usually do it is from within GIMP--since I usually want to do something with my screenshot once I have it. In the main window (the toolbox), go to File -> Acquire -> Screen shot.

He means during the install process (it was clear what he meant).

This is from the Red Hat 9 release notes:


During a graphical installation, you can now press SHIFT-Print Screen and a screenshot of the current installation screen will be taken. These are stored in the following directory:

/root/anaconda-screenshots/

The screenshots can be accessed once the newly-installed system is rebooted.
