I am currently trying to dual boot with a Linux and XP, and there are alw=
ays some problems it would seem. Lycoris looks nice, but installing and d=
ownloading are a nightmare - you download and a grey box pops up asking y=
ou stuff a beginner like me has not a clue about. And once downloaded you=
 cant find the damn things, "find" is baffling, not as straight forward a=
s Windows. Lindows does well, but has no back up forums worth a light, an=
d Mandrake - I cant get the net going, or the printer, or the scanner.Tri=
ed their "drake" config program, but I just go round and round in circles=
 and end up in the same place. Can anyone help, please ?
