h0dy all,
After flirting with the idea for years and attempting a few different distros on a few different boxes, today I downloaded DSL (Damn Small Linux), which is 50mb, designed to be burnt and run from a business card sized CDR. After doing this and arseing about in it for half an hour, I decided to take the plunge and setup this machine as dual boot XP / Xandros (open circulation edition).
I currently have 13gb free on the HDD and only XP installed, Xandros is downloading now.
Will I be able to partition the disk relatively safely, how much space will I need for Xandros and any tips on getting up and running with Linux?
:cheers:
