@MIck I have a 1TB seagate disk drive, which I would like to install... 1. Will also have windoze whatever bs it is, since its usage is still in existence duh! - - 2. Surely Debian the universal OS - will have x86-64 image. - GNOME - Kernel 3.x. - bash 3. The Ubuntu - will have 32-bit - image. - XFCE - Kernel 3.x. - bash 4. The Slackware vanilla (stable), to get deep into the kernel :) - 32-bit image - registers and argument handling. - fluxbox - Kernel 2.xx.x - bash 5. Voiding Gentoo is like keeping the penguin out of ice cap, so will make space for it. -x86-32 image - KDE - Kernel 3.x. - sh 6. Thinking of legacy commercial unix solaris 5/09 (the original unix of them all) - 32-bit image - CDE - woohoo! I know its a bit whimsical, but would love to work on these OS'es except the #1 in order. Yes I have a PC clone, thus MBR. Any advise is welcome.
