Installing Linux : A present-day Odyssey?

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 05/21/2005 04:27 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

DriverHeaven has posted an article about the woes of Linux installations

Now that Windows was installed, it was time for me to install Linux. I had a spare 120GB PATA disk, and decided to dedicate it to Linux all by itself. So I took my Ubuntu CD (another change of heart I had lately – I abandoned my sweet Gentoo for Ubuntu, growing tired of long compilation times) and installed the OS. Installation was not a problem here as well; and after a while I rebooted to Ubuntu. That is where the problems started.
