With the recent spate of posts asking for help with ntfs partitions,
often on ancient distributions, I think I might as well recommend a more
modern distro to the newbies. Ladies and Gentlemen, Mandrake (now
Mandriva) is a pretty, newbie-friendly distro, which automatically
mounts your Windows partitions (FAT32 and NTFS) during installation. I
have Mandrake 10.1, and would gladly share it with people, however, not
before 15th June. (Exams)
