When I was a newbie with Linux, I used Eigerstein2beta (floppy image) and it was very easy to setup. I have tried Dachstein 1.0.2 and it is a bit easier to set up and run. I have never tried the cd image, I do not have a cd burner. BTW which connection to the Internet do you have cable, dsl? If you have a DSL connection with PPPoE then that will limit you to only a few lrp programs. Charles cd version of Dachstein supports PPPoE and so does the floppy version of Dachstein from Kenneth Hadley. Robert Chambers
