[GRASS-user] new user setting up a new mapset/project

[mtnbiketrail at zzz.com]

I'm confused.
I want to set up a new project and use UTM wgs 84.
But, some of my data is drg(base USGS topo map), which are lat/long,  
and the field data I want to use is x,y( I have UTM coords which I can  
georeference to).
So when I set up the project, which coord should I use?

When I went to use UTM, I did not understand how to get the north,  
south, east, west info. Grass did not like the tiff, and associated  
tfw for the base map.

using Ubuntu, Grass 6.3


Thanks,
Tom
