There are so many releases where do you start?
My background is of course with Windows products. I know DOS very well. Novell Lan manager etc. of course Windows NT/2000.
I’m thinking I would like two versions one that I could load on a old 486 that I would normally load DOS 6 on. Learn it from the command line first. Learn to setup hardware under Linux the way I used to on DOS machines. Next, I would like a verion that is GUI and runs well on a PIII 500. I’m thinking Redhad 7 for that one. To me, installing Redhat 7 and trying to learn that is putting the cart before the horse. I wouldnt have the advantage of running it for years and years like I did with DOS.
What can I do? Any comments or suggestions would be appeciated espically from people that have come from a DOS background and are learning Linux. What approaches are you taking etc.
Thanks
Jody
