I disagree!! The very first linux I ever saw was Slackware 3.5; I bought a
4CD set from DataBlitz - it came with excelent install docs. Slackware is a
very good linux to learn on, you do things "by hand" first - then you go
automatic. You have to know algebra before you can do integral calculus ;->.
See, when I was a linux moron I learned on slackware. Now that I'm only an
idiot I use Mandrake. ;->

Whatever you learn will never go to trash. Stick with it for a while then
try other flavors and decide what you like best. I tried red hat, turbo
linux, caldera open linux, suse, until I finally tried mandrake and that's
what I like best.
HTH.
