[RULE] Installation questions

Good afternoon all;

     I feel quite frustrated trying to load RULE on my old Toshiba 
Satellite 200 CDS.  I created two partitions: 1) root 180MB and 2) Swap 
620MB [Which one should be bootable?]
     I successfuly loaded the boot disk and the image disk, then loaded 
from RH 7.3.  I created a rescue disk.  I waled away during installation 
and upon return found that it had skipped setting root password prompt.  
When installation is complete I reboot and receive a "Can't find 
operating system" message.  I reboot with the rescue disk and must login 
as root since I couldn't set additional users.  How do I start X?  When 
I type dir I see that I have one directory: scripts.  Within in scripts 
are some of the packages I installed, i.e. dial-up, etc. 
     Where is the configuration file so I can use it to show what I have 
done?  Arg.  It is frustrating to want to use GNU/Linux and sack 
windoze, but Win9X install and runs trouble-free for me on this old box.
     All help is appreciated.  Perhaps I am not knowledgable enough to 
install and run it?

Kevin
