Hi, Ian 
I think that Ubuntu 9.04 (www.ubuntu.com) is going to be the easier
and the best solution to overcame *winzoz* OS.
It needs no more of 5GB of HD space for a normal house linux system.
Any partition on HD is suitable to install... and a completely
automatical install may be operated too!
Everything you need comes on one CD, providing a complete working
environment. Additional software is available online.
The graphical installer enables you to get up and running quickly and
easily. A standard installation should take less than 25 minutes.
Once installed your system is immediately ready-to-use. On the desktop
you have a full set of productivity, internet, drawing and graphics
applications, and games.

I have been considering giving Linux another try. Up until about 5 years
ago I had tried Linux going back as far as Slackware v 3. Al I got was a
headache !

I know there are a lot of easier to install flavours around. Can anyone
reccomend the best ?

I do have a couple of partition programmes though I think they are only
DOS. My HDD is 160 GB
of which I have only used 26%. What size partition would you recomend and
how do I make a more modern Linux prog install to any other partition but
C, which is what Rd Hat 10, the last one I tried always wanted to do, thus
replacing my Windows O.S.

Thanks for any advice.

73 from Ian, G0TEZ...
