fun with linux...

Faust:
My debian install gives the option to "remove the pcmcia package" at boot.  My thoughts are that it may be a kernel module - if so editing /etc/modules and commenting out any "pcmcia" looking lines would help, but you have to boot up first to get there.  Try toms root boot to get in and change things.

Im planning to install Mandrake 9.1 I think I know how root works. Any tips on instalation? or what to use ? KDE,WindowManer,Gnome ? Thanks

Faust:
Installation : Choose "expert install", *read what the screen says twice or more*, know about partitioning.

What to use : I just installed one of everything then played around until I found the ones I liked.  The other option is to stick with the defaults and get comfortable with them before trying new programs.  This way you get accustomed to Linux, then you get accustomed to new window managers rather than having to learn both at once.

Don't be afraid to just take your time, it's better than rushing.
