Re: Anyone know about Linux?
Quote:
I just got done downloading Mandrake linux, and am currently burning the CD for it. Lucky for me, I have a backup computer that I never use, so I can experiment on it before trying it on my regular computer.
If I keep Windows, how much space should I set aside for my Linux partition? I have 3GB of free space, should I give it all to Linux or leave some for Windows? Should I be asking these questions in a Linux forum?
Thanks everyone

Linux is quite bloated. If you select all then your looking at 3 gigs easy.
The secert is to pick one of each type of program your going to use. So 1 ) explorer, 1) editor etc..
2 gigs should be good by itself ( with room to spare ) if you do not go hog wild.
What are you planning to do with linux ? Learn it from a user point of view or as an adminstrator ??
