Fedora is owned and sponsored by Red Hat. The purpose of Fedora is to always have the latest and greatest technologies integrated into the operating system. Because of this Fedora is not well known for being the most stable operating system but none the less a great operating system. This guide will show you how to install Fedora 18 with the GNOME desktop environment as a dual-boot with Windows.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Before you begin make sure you have the following system requirements for this installation guide. This ensures a simple and easier installation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>RAM: 1 GB<\/p>\n<p>CPU: 400MHz<\/p>\n<p>HDD: 10 GB<\/p>\n<p>The first step you need to do to complete the Fedora installation is to go to the Fedora website and download the installation DVD ISO image. The link to the download page can be found here: <a href=\"https:\/\/getfedora.org\/en\/workstation\/download\/\">http:\/\/fedoraproject.org\/en\/get-fedora-options<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once you have downloaded the ISO image for the installation then you need to burn the ISO image to a blank DVD. If you do not know how to do this then do a Google search for \u201cburning ISO image\u201d using your operating system. I will be posting a guide soon on how to do this but for now there are many great tutorials out there.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have burned the ISO image to a blank DVD then it is time to start the installation. Put the disk into the disk drive if it isn\u2019t already and reboot your computer. When your computer reboots be sure to boot off of the Disk and not back into your current operating system. If your computer does not boot off of the disk then you may have to change your bios settings.<\/p>\n<p>Once you boot off of the Fedora 18 disk then your screen should look like the image below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thelinuxstartup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Fedora18_Install023.png\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/thelinuxstartup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Fedora18_Install023.webp \"  type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/thelinuxstartup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Fedora18_Install023.png\" height=\"500\" width=\"650\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-217 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Fedora 18 installation - DVD boot menu\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/a><\/p>\n<p>From the Fedora 18 installation DVD boot loader select \u201cInstall Fedora\u201d.
