Good Linux OS to START with?

it's called "PhatLINUX." It's not, err, bad, but I only used it once. It's 335mb to download, and that's a bit less then all the other distros. And it's very user friendly.

Calum:
i have phatlinux and could not even get it to install (it wants to install on my fat32 partition - odd, and suspicious) so maybe it's not worth the download. I have not had any problems with mandrake 8.2 though, but then it's a biggie. I got mine from a cover CD of a magazine. Look out for those, as you will likely get a full distro for a few quid if you keep yer peepers open. I so far have got red hat 7.0, mandrake 8.2 and turbolinux 6.2 for a total of about US$20...

umm, try peanut linux, it comes in at under like 225 meg to download i think, it should kick ass though

About two weeks ago Barns & Novels was selling a seven dollar magazine that had Mandrake CDs #1 and #2 and. The magazine had "linux" in the title  ;)
