I have made several attempts at installing linux FC3, FC4, Ubuntu, Mandriva but somehow or the other failed. Mostly there was problem with the SATA drive. Installation waseasy on the same m/c on ide hdd. Ultimately i installed knoppix 4. Somehow it has managed to work. However, sometimes at boottime it gives trouble with some IRQ problem.
