A: Installing Fedora/RHEL is the process of copying operating system files from a CD, DVD, or USB flash drive to hard disk(s) on a system and setting up configuration files so Linux runs properly on the hardware. Several types of installations are possible, including fresh installations, upgrades from older releases of Fedora/RHEL, and dual-boot installations.

The MBR can point to any physical partition on the drive. It may even be able to point to any logical partition. It's usually best to have it point to the partition with the stage 2 bootloader, however, otherwise the system won't boot.

How do you mount a hard drive enclosure in Fedora 7?
First, find out what device it is. When you plug it in, run "dmesg" to see what it's ID is. For instance, run
dmesg | grep sd
And find a line like
[42723.415115] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdf] 2015231 512-byte hardware sectors (20148 MB)
This means that the device is known to the kernel as /dev/sdf.
Now identify what partition you want to mount. If the drive has only one partition, it would be /dev/sdf1. The second partition would be /dev/sdf2, etc... Make a mount point for it in /media, and mount it. You will need root permissions.
mkdir /media/disk-1
mount /dev/sdf1 /media/disk-1
