Linux.

The Ultimate Operating System.

About a month ago I installed Red Hat Linux on my computer. Wow! It is excellent. It is an extremely powerful operating system but is reasonably easy to install and configure. Some installation and configuration aspects need a little work to make it easier but overall it has come a long way.

I also wanted to record my experiences with setting up Linux before I forget what I did. Just a word of warning - you use these guides at your own risk. If you don't know what you're doing then either don't use Linux or make sure you back up before you screw up :)

My Linux Guides

Setup - what special things I did to set up.
Modules - how to get modules going.
Doom - how to get doom working on Red Hat 5.1
Kernel Compiling - how to re-compile the kernel
