With LIVE CDs, you can just 1. Put the LIVE CD into your CD/DVD Drive 2. VOILA! After booting up using the LIVE CD, you will have a working GNU/Linux system! (NOTE: The system is slower because of CD/DVD access speed) You can just feel it out first. No installation needed and your current hard drive is not touched (unless you intend to). Once you made a choice, there is usually a way install your GNU/Linux system on the hard disk (may dual-boot with other OSes like Windows, DOS, GNU/Linux, etc.) Some of the recommended live CDs are: (1) Ubuntu; (2) Kubuntu; (3) Mandriva (formerly Mandrake); (4) PC Linux OS; (5) Slax; (6) Peanut; (7) Knoppix; (8) SuSe; (9) Symphony OS Visit the full list of LIVE CDs: http://www.frozentech.com/content/livecd.php For a comprehensive listing of TOP GNU/Linux distributions (albeit including *BSD operatings systems), visit: http://distrowatch.com HTH Arys _________________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Newbie Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
