Review style Screencast Tutorial on how to use and install MEPIS AntiX M8.5 686 lightweight Linux OS that runs very fast with iceWM and only uses 40-50MB of RAM. I load it from the Live CD ISO inside a VirtualBox Virtual Machine and then I install it and show off all its applications and features. Original video production by the www.OSGUI.com Tech Show.
I want to learn more about Linux and the different distros before I try to dual boot or anything of the sort. I tried live cds, but you can’t learn much from those, as you can’t save anything and download anything without having to keep resetting an internet connection. I tried running Linux through Windows Virtual PC 2007 and 2004, but neither of them work. I’ve heard of VMware, but which one do you download? I’ve also heard of Virtual Box and am considering trying it.
So which download is the right one?

Review style Screencast video of Fedora Linux 13 Beta 32bit KDE edition Live CD Open Source GNU/Linux Operating System. I demo this OS inside VirtualBox Virtual Machine inside of Kubuntu Linux 9.10. My conclusion is that Fedora is not easy to use or ready for the desktop or laptop masses of everyday uses, it is still just for geeks in server rooms, in my opinion. Fedora Jesse Keating has announced the availability of the beta release of Fedora 13: The beta release is the last important milestone of Fedora 13. Only critical bug fixes will be pushed as updates leading up to the general release of Fedora 13, scheduled to be released in the middle of May. A universe of new features for end users: automatic print driver installation; desktop enhancements – the Shotwell photo manager, Deja-dup backup software, Pino Identi.ca / Twitter client, and Simple Scan scanning utility; NetworkManager improvements include better Mobile Broadband, Bluetooth, and new CLI abilities; color management; enhanced iPod functionality; experimental 3D graphics support extended to free Nouveau driver for NVIDIA cards….” Original video production by the www.OSGUI.com Tech Show.

I have an Ubuntu 6.10 live Cd and Microsoft Virtual PC 2007. I went through the wizard by creating a new virtual hard disk. Now I have the Virtual PC Console showing my newly created virtual machine, and status saying “Not Running”.
What do I do now? Please forgive me, I’m a Linux newbie
