 I suggest two solutions,

 1. Suse Studio.  Easiest, automated.

     a. Create an appliance with the requires softwares such as apache
     b. Run a Test drive and then  add your customizations
     c.  Go to overlay files and commit changes.
     d.  Rebuild your appliance in whatever format you want (iso, usb image,
 vm image etc,)


I second the VM image solution.  Participants can do further
customization of the base image and you never know they may end up
using that for their own production.   openBRAVO

Take a look at the download options of openbravo - besides the tar
ball, they provide VM image for QEMU (works with Linux KVM), Xen and
VMWare.

Welcome Asish,

 what kind of Linux will be easy to start with? ubuntu/fedora

You can try any one of them!, my personal choice is ubuntu!.

The following urls will help you to install dualboot

http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Installing_Fedora_Linux_on_a_Windows_System_%28Dual_booting%29
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot

Please take up backup on the windows partition before you venture into
installing the dual boot .
Kindly consider searching for answers through popular search engine such as
google..
Wish you to have happy ,steady and stable experience with Free and Open
source OS.

regards,

Thyagarajan Shanmugham

always put a meaningful subject line. I have changed it for you. Fedora
is very easy to install. Boot from the dvd, follow the instructions and
you are done. For dual boot you can shrink the windows partition (during
the install) to create space. If you are unfortunate enough to have
windows 7, you will have to shrink the partition from within windows as
fedora cannot do that. (do not forget to do a tantric ritual called
'defrag' before shrink)
