Hi everybody,
There was a time I was a big Gentoo fan. Now, having lost my nerves with emerge failures and bug reports, I have started to think about a new distribution. Kubuntu might be a good - I mean excellent - one.
I am no linux-guru, but I know the basics. I would like to have a fast KDE desktop (AMD64), a firewall, KTorrent, KOffice, and Gimp. Sadly, I also need to have Windows XP dual boot. I know Kubuntu offers all that.
The only thing I am worried about is how difficult will it be to install Kubuntu and get rid of Gentoo. What is the easiest way to do it? There are two quite large subdirectories in /home, no important personal files anywhere else, and Grub is my bootloader.
Any comments and suggestions are welcome!
Best wishes,
srz
