Solve : Newbie Linux?

Answer»

I'm going to start playing around with linux once I get my cheap computer in, but my problem is, I have no EXPERIENCE with it.

Perhaps the admin's or someone kind enough could link or WRITE a "newbie manual" on installing and running a first time linux flavour for people who want to try it out and get some basic experience operating and experiencing it without destroying their computer in the process.

I understand all parts of the installation are learning aspects, but I would FEEL more comfortable if there was a Do's and Dont's guide that would give some tips on Linux prior to the initial use.Quote

write? comme on.... http://www.linux.ie/newusers/beginners-linux-guide/ here is your link, you could just find it by googling for itI appreciate the link, but I prefer to have help from the fine people here rather than googling a bunch of sites that give me more problems than not. More good experiences here than anywhere else. =Pblackberry,

The thing is that we would be reinventing the wheel. Start by Googling for the "Linux Documentation Project". You'll find beginners guides there plus a lot more advanced stuff.
