So I log onto google, type in linux white box, and hit search. I find a site that has 4 ISOs for Whitebox. I proceed to download them all (at very nice speeds I may add) After the downloading I burned the iso to 4 different disks. Upon doing that, I promply insert the first disk and restart my computer. The computer loads up and the disk takes over after the BIOS is done loading. It starts asking me the usual questions of this is a licensed product and are you sure you want to install this etc. After words I hit a small wall. I kept thinking to myself, "when is it going to ask about the partitions of the drives that I need to install it on?" In the back of my mind I was scared that I would delete the partition that has all my music and games and work and such on it. I didn't want to lose that for sure. Finally the partition menu showed up not taking any chances I created a new partition with the old partition I made that housed a beta copy of Vista (and by golly was that build glitchy.) It then prompted me on whether I wanted to install a workstation version of the OS or a Server version. I prompted the Workstation version seeing as I didn't think I would be hosting anything anytime soon. After that. the install takes place. It took around 15 minutes to install everything. Then I promptly restarted my computer.
Coming up next: I get lost in linux
