I already have tried the regular live cd option for Ubuntu and it did not work on my laptop because my laptop apparently does not have enough RAM to run it. I think the RAM is like 256. I’m going to be trying edubuntu and kubuntu next.

What is the best Linux distribution for a person new to the Linux operating system?
I already have tried the regular live cd option for Ubuntu and it did not work on my laptop because my laptop apparently does not have enough RAM to run it. I think the RAM is like 256. I’m going to be trying edubuntu and kubuntu next.

I need help with knoppix linux.?
I just downloaded a knoppix live cd, and I can boot onto it without a hitch, But the only interface I can access is a screen with a www. option, an email option, etc. I know knoppix usually comes with a desktop and a toolbar and everything, Is their a command I can Use to access it like with backtrack? Also, Is it possible to access my wpa encrypted network from knoppix? Thanks.

How do I exactly install Fedora Linux onto another partition?
I’ve been trying to get Fedora Linux onto my Vista laptop where I can dual boot and I can’t seem to get it. I made a partition already that is 50GB and booted up into Linux with a Live CD. I went to the desktop and opened the install to HD option and got up to the part where you chose how to install it onto there, etc. I would like to dual boot and use that 50GB as a Linux OS. How do I do this?
*If you e-mail me at hibbywhy@yahoo.com I’ll send you pictures of what I am doing and what I need help with.*
Ubuntu installer, pressing enter does nothing?
I have a Ubuntu live cd and I have installed it successfully on 2 computers, yet it won’t install on this one. When I get to the cd boot menu I have “try without installing”, “install” etc. Clicking enter on any option causes the cd to whirr for a second and the harddrive to light up momentarily. Then…nothing. I can move up and down the menu again and enter still does nothing. I have puppy linux running on this (from a cd) fine. Any tips?
Thanks David, I would do that except this laptop refuses to boot from usb ;/ Many attempts have failed.
