Well I need to get used to partitioning in linux and not using the GUI PM8. I need to Part my hard drive with fedore which i'm getting ready to install here within the next couple of days. Do any of you have a walkthrough, white paper or some tips to help me out? :)

Ok now does the workstation have the same features as Personal Desktop with added components or, do you have to add them individually?

you can add/remove packages during installation or after installation
all you need is the 4 cd's or the one dvd,
are you planning on dual booting windows/linux ? if so you'll need a blank partition created on the windows machine BEFORE you try to install linux.
once the linux installation begins it can use that blank partition and it will repartition that partition into its own layout,
easy peasy
cheers
