Subject:Re: Linux? Tell me more.

Hi all,

Ok just to join in this thread about Linux:

I installed Linux Mandrake 7.0 of a CD onto my PC. I cannot get my head
round it though. The frontend is KDE (I think - (linux novice)) and I
don't understand the way the structure in which files are stored. It
created a number of partitions, files that it describes as exe files don't
run and rpm files (which are red hat ones (i think) are supposed to be
fully compatible with mandrake) also don't run.

I think I best buy a book, but till then, any clues and tips would be
great.

Ad.
