Red Hat?

<< < (5/5)

I did try other ones.  I ended up buying it, and it installed fine, so something corrupted the ISO's when I downloaded it I think.  So far so good.  I wouldn't think of switching back to winders.
thanks for all your help people.  This is one of the most generally helpful and friendly computer help boards I've ever been too.  Usually the users are all "! 4m 73 31337 h4xx0rz  f43r m3"  and won't help.  Thanks again.

for you my freind don't use red hat I tried it first as a os it was really hard to get up and running most of my stuff did not work i recomend mandrake linux because its really easy to use set up and it does not take a long time to get use to suse would be great as it has wine itagrated in to it so you can use windows aplications.  :cool:

Oh, you should always check the ISO files before burning them by comparing MD5 sums.

BouncingAyatollah:
If you burn your CDs on Winbloat you can get md5sum for that too, do a Google for "md5sum Windows". Put it in your Windows/system or Windows/system32 directory (depending on your version of Bloat). When you get an ISO get the associated .md5 file too.

Open a DOS box, CD to the place where the files are and

md5sum -c biglong-name-timestamp-distro-ver.md5

(well, if you got the SAME md5sum as me :) )

I mostly like red hat, and I don't find it all that tough setting up except that it doesn't seem to support my hardware very well (that's why i'm trying suse next, their "live-eval" worked very well with my stuff). Is that what you mean by most of your stuff not working?
