Thread Name: Tech: How do I get Linux?
Subject: RE: Tech: How do I get Linux?
I have a drive partitioned in my rebuild computer ready to try, (C has Windoze on and D is empty and formatted, and E and F are there for data storage and backups) and a set of CDs on the shelf - and then I saw a remark in passing somewhere that Linux uses a different type of disk storage - now was it that it wasn't FAT32, or that it wasnt NTFS?

If my installation disks are going to reformat the entire drive not just the D partition, and if they are not going to give me the chance to put Linux in the D partition in stead of the C, I'm going to have problems....

Thoughts?
