Question #78334 on Ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78334
Tom proposed the following answer: I never know which to do first, the md5 check of the cd or just run a LiveCd session. The LiveCd gives a good general impression so if you don't like what you see then why not move straight on to the next distro. Sometimes it's worth popping back and re-try a distro. Of course a bad md5 will lead to a bad LiveCd but if you don't like the LiveCd then you may have saved time doing a md5 check <shrugs> a chicken and egg type thing. DistroWatch pages are a good central place to find out about different distros and it's easy to navigate to the home pages from there. @ Gandolinio - i agree with most of what you say apart from point 3 in this case because the 1st time Ryanehill asked us for help we ignored him https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/75482 There's not enough of us volunteers and there's only so much time that we can each put into this but there's got to be a better way for us to handle situations like this. A rude note from the Janitor after 15days is unhelpful and i think we should work on fixing that note at the very least. Anyway, good luck and regards from Tom :) -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
