Hi.

LQ gets voluminous amounts of (to ?any) "novice" inquires and many frequented
so here's more of some quick links from *we to you* best wishes and have fun.

Going to keep it short and simple, up to you how deep to go Untitled.png
What we learn with we perceive most useful but truthfully, the more we learn with the more we'll find useful.

Many a seA so Read into it WiSely.

You've(1) decided to make(2) a choice(3) for freedom(4) and at a good time(5) too,,, in my more than twenty years with it* I've watched GNU\Linux(6) change to be usable by anyone so enjoy! More importantly search(8) answers(9) before posting questions as-well put more info(10). Then if your problem gets solved [inform] plus how for the sake of others?.
And, that's all I'm going to put outside of comments but
infinite-possibilities--so-long(--paronomasia-in-10-did.

)

1. Eg: Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...ie; Why you should back up your files (and\or configs, microcoughed-loosedough$ if you may need it too &c*)

2. Wikipedia; Live CD (or USB or Virtualbox &see*)

3. Distrowatch; Distribution category Live Medium "Sorted by popularity" (you decide also from Linux magazines or distro sites plus try libraries &sea...)

4. Free as in Freedom; Richard Stallman's Crusade for Free Software manybooks.net &sí*

5. Debian User Forums; How to Help Someone use a Computer

6. Top pick of searching www.tldp.org(7) for 'what is Linux'

7. The Linux Documentation Project

8. University of South Carolina; Bare Bones 101: A Basic Tutorial On Searching The Web ...

9. How To Ask Questions The Smart Way; www.catb.org

10. : like your PC or hardware's model number ; defined by Computer Hope .com and at a (10.1)command-prompt$(: Kon-Solo;)

Code:

man uname -a

(FreeBSD Man Pages)(10.2) additionally more on the problem at hand, what you did\want, error codes+++

Happy Hacking

P.s:(11) want to mention the joy I've had
trying many, many distros plus window
managers and think it's vital. . .

CLI is the best but I do love how bloatware rhymes with cycles to spare.

To boot http://www.wikihow.com/Boot-a-Computer-from-a-CD.

Sometimes Wifi firmware (+other) is not 'open' (or $upported by freedom) so you'll need "non-free"opened drivers (some distros try for only free (maybe due to reverse-engineering legalities or patents on math and such(?) to promote the way it should be(!)) but) If happens another device to get drivers transferred will help via CD\USB\SD\local-device-to-device-connection\etc plus can help generally for searching topics if your main system goes down. Ethernet can almost always help to download the drivers as well. I've used Debian or based-upon-distros more often so: https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware-(/non-free/firmware/)
http://httpredir.debian.org/ Sid is "much more... muchier..." eg prime video stopped working in chrome for me so installed chrome "unstable" plays fine...

Another few things to mention if you use a 64-bit PC use a 64-bit OS (IMHO) and http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ml#post5042929 with http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/...yer-linux.html plus http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...6/#post5086665 also http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html as-well http://www.howtogeek.com/149254/if-i...install-linux/ fun http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...lp-4175489581/ I guess http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm always find updated-info if links don't die or *I don't update.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...n_Timeline.svg

P.s: (again,) why do we recommend certain distros? They're free to try and it's up to you! (some may work easier and\or better with your hardware or\and willingness) RPM, DEB, TAR,,,

"The average human uses ten percent brain power at most times???"
So, find nine more people; GPL it baby! :-D

Like snowboarding (most) Linuces easy learning curves (WHISTLE♪whistle♫) can get steep depending on what you want to do.

Virtualbox (+ +) run operating-systems in Linux and

(see what you will)
Use losedoh$-microcoughed when referring to, "it,," stops the adds for such frivolous $pending and tick$ them off? L

(And--you may want to back that up if you need it.)

1: Remember the human

The golden rule your parents and your kindergarten teacher taught you was pretty simple: Do unto others as you'd have others do unto you. Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. Stand up for yourself, but try not to hurt people's feelings.

In cyberspace, we state this in an even more basic manner: Remember the human.

... "our parents and" "our kindergarten teacher taught" not who's?
