I am new to UNIX, and want to download a basic UNIX system, just to
run commands and become familiar with the system. I wish to use this
system as a companion piece to a UNIX tutorial which I have on DVD. I
do not want to replace Windows at this time.
My PC has: Pentium III Processor at 1GHz, 128MB RAM at 133 MHz,
Windows ME operating system.
What course of action do you recommend that I take?
Thanks.
Another idea:
First try a live CD (Freesbie), as recommended above, to
get used to everything (won't do any harm).
Then get a second hard drive and install freebsd on this
(should be cheaper than buying Partition Magic).
You can "dual boot" both systems then and leave your XP
installation as is.
