Hi
I currently have Windows XP pro but I'd like to try out Linux
Could you recommend a distribution for me that is easy to use and will work with my system?
I'm a complete linux newbie so I have no idea what I'm looking for
I'd like to be able to partition my drive during linux installation if that's possible, so I can dual boot it with Windows XP
I have a 100Gb HDD - how much space will I need for Linux?
Also, will all of my hardware work with linux?
Like I said, I'm a complete newbie, I have no idea about Linux
Hardware - AMD Turion 64 MT-37, 1Gb RAM, 100Gb HDD, ATi Mobility X1600, Creative Audigy 2 ZS Notebook, Sony DW-Q520A DVDRW, Freecom 250Gb external HDD, Logitech Pilot Optical Mouse, Corsair Flash Voyager 1Gb
Any advice and help would be appreciated, remember I have no real clue about it
Thanks
