Anyone installed Linux on an Intel pc? I'm thinking about giving it the ole college try. Don't know diddly about Linux. Want to try something new. I'm thinking of Ubantu as the distribution and want to use dual boot.
I occasionally play with Ubuntu, mostly when I need to recover data from a Windows PC that doesn't want to give me access to the hard drive. But it is more "play" than "seriously use". And when I'm doing that, I'm just running off a USB Live installation. But Ubuntu is a nice distro. Actually, I haven't even played with it in
months, so I'm sure a lot has changed.
If you're interested in trying other flavors, check out
www.distrowatch.com They post information on the latest major releases, and it's a great place to see what's out there. There are far more distributions of Linux than most folks realize.
