I have no idea.
I was like "Ok, linux sounds cool, why not give it a chance"
Friend was like "oh oh get gentoo all fast and stuff"
so i get it.
after 2 weeks of trying to install it - crash boom band no good cuz of
team that developed it left some bug in .iso
so im like, screw it - gona get one that has most easy install.
www.google.com obviously....
arklinux - 4mouse clicks! wow thats for me!
another 3days of d/ling cuz of shity isp - yahoo got a cd..
put in, boot up.... 3rd option hangs pc all together w/o any question
no no i think to myself - this must be cuz i try to install it on 
hdd w/ windoze on it!
so back to w2k - partition magic, 2gigs of upartitioned space ready to go.
back to booting..
option 2...
bam - tetrix = hurray, off it went!
copy copy copy...
Installing system...
Creating Default User - mouse stops, numlock doesnt work, cd wont eject..
and i was on 6th level of tetrix alrady... :(
sigh to myself.. bout to kick a pc..
boot up windoze - new mail
ghm...
ArkLinux 7.1 released!!
WOW! this must be it...
another 2days of patiently waiting till its on hdd.. another cd up into cd-rw..
burn burn burn... boot boot boot... copy copy copy... tetrix tetrix tetrix..
bam. same thing no good.
slamed head into a wall few times.. writing mail to you guys and holding bag of 
ice on that nasty bruice on forehead.
left with only option.. d/l one of that big big mega mega distributions that 
install comes on 3cd's = d/loading for 2weeks.
and i realy liked the idea of H2O.
funy thing i wana try out mcl for mudding on linux only, and see what this 
peguine is made of.
well if u read to here, might as well tell ya all - no bad that wont turn into 
good = i know what partition is now :P
keep up the good work, ill check on alpha 8.0 pbly - idea is neat
