Solve : Unix/UWin--Getting started?

1.	Solve : Unix/UWin--Getting started?
Answer» I need help getting started with UWin. I'm a student and I've been given a VAGUE set of notes on Unix/Linux and I've spent countless hours trying to GET started on this project. We've been using MSDOS until now. I've only installed UWin with the ksh shell and I have the following question. 1. Upon opening ksh am I ready to start using UNIX? In my notes and what I've found online I should be setting up a user login name, pw, and HOME directory, but when I open ksh I only get the $ prompt. Am I missing SOMETHING? Please help! I'm usually good at figuring things out, but it's hard when the instruction don't even make sense! why use Uwin? if its possible, install cygwin instead.That means you can type in a command. $ is the normal user prompt. # is for root. You need to GRAB a live cd and use the infamous apropos command.
