Re: newkomer to linux, new custom pc, need help/suggestions (long)
Alright, I found an old 40GB hard drive this morning and got that installed on my other computer. I'm in the process of downloading the Kubuntu LiveCD right now so when that completes I'll run fdisk and try my hand at aligning cylinders and adjusting the heads and sectors to see if I can get it partitioned properly. The machine I'm using this on is an old athlon 64 3.2 GHz processor with 1GB RAM. I'll post updates when I get to them so I can get more input and suggestions if I need them, or if the community feels there is more information I should know about.
BTW I just noticed I haven't thanked anyone, thus far, for the information they have provided so THANK YOU!!! You guys have been great, patient, and understanding. I hope to be able to make everything work out the way I want it to.
