System Utilities - Linux Distributions Millions of Linux users may be comfortable with the re-partitioning process that's part of installing more than one operating system on a personal computer.
Still, millions more may have reservations about destroying the data on a perfectly good hard drive just to check out this operating system. End result: the people that might benefit the most from Linux
Professional users who need a stable and reliable operating system -- tend not to go near the thing.
WinLinux 2000 removes this stumbling block entirely:
Installing this Linux distribution is, according to its creator, as easy as installing any Windows application. Users no longer have to go through the tedious process of reconfiguring their hard drives just to take advantage of a superior operating system.
Since this flavor of Linux coexists with your Windows operating system a bit more intimately than other Linux distributions, the entry requirements are a little higher.
If you have a Pentium class system, a VGA video card,and at least 500MB of available disk real estate,you shouldn't have a problem installing WinLinux 2000.
During the install process, WinLinux 2000 seeks out your hardware settings and makes any required adjustments so that you'll get the most out of Linux right away, without the need to muck about in configuration files. If you've installed the Red Hat version of Linux, then you have a pretty good idea of how this handy feature works.
Once installed, starting WinLinux 2000 is merely a matter of double-clicking an icon on the Windows desktop. This is a full-featured Linux distribution, including all of the Linux standards and wingdings veteran users take for granted, including a copy of the K Desktop Environment, a graphical user interface that new users will probably feel the most comfortable using.
