| I’m presently auditioning for a new distro. PCLinuxOS 2007 has been the
| family favorite for the past year or so. Last weekend I went ahead and did
| an over-massive upgrade. I was anxious to get a look at all the new stuff,
| but could not for life of me, get past the login screen. It would lock up
| totally, and there I was stranded. I tried rebooting several times, but
| could not proceed. The new splash screen looked lovely, but not much good
| when I couldn’t even sign in. The update must have knocked something out.
| Lesson learned: update in small increments. PCLinuxOS is looking a bit old
| compared to many of the other distros in the top 10 on Distrowatch, so it is
| time. I know the PCLOS team is working on a new release but I’m going to
| have a look at some others anyway. I could always use the other OS that came
| with the machine, but I absolutely love Linux, especially for being online.

| Getting Ubuntu is easy, installing it was also a breeze ever since version
| 7.04. As outlined in my PART 1 review of the process briefly here in my video
| tutorial. I recommend you download the CD Installer and create a bootable
| installation CD. The minimum memory requirement for Ubuntu 7.10 is 384MB of
| memory and 4Gigs of space (for OS X Leopard its 512MB of memory and 9 gigs of
| space). What I was initially surprised of is the built in support for dual
| boot (OS X Leopard has Boot Camp) I had Windows XP already installed and
| Ubuntu allowed me during installation to setup partions and allocate space
| for the new OS to be installed keeping my Windows (XP or Vista) installation
| intact, and at the same time created the boot manager (aka Grub Boot Manager)
| which allows you to select the operating system on bootup.
