Chapter Three

Choosing a 'distribution'

If you have not yet Installed Linux on your computer, you might want to have a look at this chapter for information on choosing a distribution (a flavour of Linux) that suits you. There are literally hundreds, if not thousands of different flavours out there, however a few stand out from the crowd. This chapter discusses those distributions and gives you a few handy links to places where you can find out information about other distributions.
