I'm itching to get my feet wet in Linux, but the bux for a separate machine
just ain't happening. I went to LinuxISO and read that SUSE has a feature
that will automagically partition your drive for you, and let you boot into
either Suse or Winblows.
I went to Suse's site, and their YAST tool screen shot seems
impressive. They are also supposed to have an Eval version that will run
from CD, although I haven't located it yet.
My questions are:
1. Has anyone heard anything about the partioner - any bad experiences? At
this point, I'm still married to big bill, and if anything happens to my
Windows setup, I am beyond screwed.
2. Has anyone heard, or better yet, used Suse? How does it compare to
RedHat? I was all hot and bothered to try RH9, but it doesn't seem to have
compariable dual boot/eval capabilities. Thanks!
