Hi Guys. Well, I've gotten tired of waiting for the chance for a new pc and decided to put linux on the family computer. I of course plan to make lilo come up with a boot prompt so I can boot windows. I just want to try linux, but I can't get into dos and run zipspeak because it won't ditect my C drive when I try changing dirs to it I think debian, because it can install over ftp, but slackware has an easier install. Which one do you think would be good for a newbee? ------=_NextPart_000_0006_01C1DB58.BA763AC0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
