Hi,
I have an old computer Core 2 Quad with 8 GB RAM running Windows 7 Home 64 Bits, wanted to add Red Hat Enterprise for RHCSA exam. Which Red Hat should I install? 6 & 7? I have been doing Red Hat O/S installation and drivers installation for HP workstation, some basic usage, like to do a lot more in order to get a better job.

Thanks

Hi & Welcome to Linux Questions.

Red Hat is not free so you would have to pay for a subscription and have a contract with Red Hat. Running RHEL 7 would help if your going to be taking the Red Hat Exam. (RHCSA)

CentOS is the free rebuild of Red Hat so you could run that unless you want to pay Red Hat.

CentOS 7 runs well and has been stable for me.
Maybe consider it?

Good Luck on your exam!

One would think that if one is planing on taking an exam for a cert.
that one would ALREADY know the answer to such a VERY!!! BASIC!!! QUESTION!!!!
