Hello. I got my first Linux install on my
computer last winter (I think...it might have been fall) at the Install
fest. Due to pressure from a friend, I got Debian. This was all fine
and dandy until I realized that Debian has a horribly steep learning curve,
which I didn't have time to conquer. And then I reformatted my computer
this last fall, and no longer have access to my Linux partition at all (which
I'm told can be easily solved by getting a Linux boot disk...I accidentally
formatted the one I had). Anyways, what that all boils down to is that I'd
like to get a new Install of Linux on my system as long as I'm going to bother
searching out a Linux disk.
So, basically, I'd like to know what a good distro
is for beginners (I've heard lots of good stuff about Mandrake, but don't
actually know much about it), and if there's any way of getting an install disc
for it without paying lots of money for the fanciest newest package direct from
the company (poor college student syndrome).
Thanks!
Kirsa Stay
