| 69429 | 2002-08-08 11:05:00 | I have received a lot of help from people over problems with Win XP installation here. However I have been considering trying a dual boot with Linux 7.3. However I don't know anything whatsoever about Linux - except what I read in the PC World. Can anyone direct me to good 'simpletons guide to installing Linux' resources? I'm not fussed if they are online or if I gotta buy a book. I just want some good, quality resources that spell it out in plain English. Any help appreciated. |

Have a look at the Guides ... the Getting Started one is very good. In the HOWTOs, you must read the Hardware-HOWTO. That will tell you what hardware is known not to work, and what is known to work. A few others which will be worth a look: Newbie Linux manual (www.linuxdot.org), and the Linux Newbie Adminstration Guide (sunsite.dk). Some Links (www.linuxnewbieguide.com). |
