Thank you guys. I'll try the 64 bit however win I tried it with
fedura there wasn't many drivers for my lenovo laptop but may ubuntu
will be different.
I may just say forget and just buy lab time once the 2for1 offer is
made again.

To reaffirm what Kim has said if your chip is a 64bit chip then you
should download the AMD64 version of Linux – this is designed for al
l x64 processors (Intel and AMD)
If you run the x86 version (32bit) with 4Gb of Ram you will not be
able to use it all. In Windows you normally get between 3Gb and
3.5Gb depending upon the size of your video card – Can’t say for
sure about 32bit Linux as I have only ever downloaded the x64 versio
ns.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
The AMD64 bit is what you are looking for. I have an intel core 2
duo, which is 64bit capable, and im running the AMD64 tree.
Sincerely,
Kim Pedersen

Are you running 64bit or 32bit?
I have an Intel 64bit but when I go to download Ubuntu 64 it's for
AMD64 bit. So, I'm going to try with 32bits because I only have
4gig of RAM anyway although I ready to purchase more RAM.

Hi Mitch,
Thanks a lot. It was simply incredible. I loaded Ubuntu in no time
at all and with 1 simple command you mentioned below, GNS3 was up
and running in 15 minutes. So uncomplicated and straight forward.
Manny, this is the best way to go. I'll load up the IPEXPERT lab and
start up all devices and take a look at CPU utilization. But setup
wise it was a breeze.
Once again, thanks a lot for your sharing.
Cheers,
Vikas.

Redhat is a good distro, but Ubuntu has a much better community for
support. I'd recommend using it instead if you can. Installing
GNS3 on Ubuntu is ridiculously easy it's "sudo apt-get install gns3".
The installation documentation is pretty good, it can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/installation-guide/index.html
& the support forums at http://ubuntuforums.org. A word of advise
though, read the faqs before asking something, they tend to get a
snippy if you ask a question that's been answered 100 times.
Mitch
