Finally managed to get my hands on some P2 350s

CDROM thrown in too. (atleast in one of them). it has 98 for now, but planning to use a stripped
down version of
ubuntu. if there was ever such a thing.
Try Damn Small Linux (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/) it supports HDD Install and very light.
DSL is Debian based and after installation you can use apt to install whatever you want.
According to DSL site, all you need is 486 with 16 MB of RAM!
If I download this to my HDD, and install it to replace my current RH9, which has some irritating issues with memory handling (aside from issues recognising peripheral hardware, plus the CDROM drive is kaput), will I lose my RH9 user settings?
If this is a completely trivial question, please do mail me back offlist, anyone who can guide me ensure that neither settings nor stuff like mailboxes get lost (this is the computer my wife uses, and my life will be at stake).
Many thanks
