Installing Ubuntu - So easy, I may be about to join the darkside
The other day i thought I'd give linux a shot. so I went along to the ubuntu page (http://www.ubuntu.com) and clicked download. downloaded the iso for 6.10 that went pretty quickly - while I was doing other bits and pieces on the web, and it took a grand total of about 45 minutes.
burnt it to cd, and took it over to an older p3 that I had prepared earlier. chucked it in the drive, booted it. *bang* Linux up and running.
really easy to find the config for networking, so I set that up for my secondary TCL Cable connection. tested that - went to Http://www.geekzone.co. - working.
