>Wubi installer
Ubuntu sucks
Wubi sucks as an installer
when you add the two together you get the most horrible operating system ever
There are more distros than Fedora and Ubuntu.
Try Arch or Mandriva or something. |

| Have another computer with the installation guide open on it because Arch can be incredibly confusing. It's meant for advanced users but it's not that hard to use once you figure it out. |

How big are your cd's?
You can also boot from a flashdrive using LiLi or UNetbootin |

Opensuse isn't 4.7 gb.
If you click Live GNOME it gives you a 662 mb download. |

@Tiara
Backtrack = Ubuntu 10.04 with some special programs
I'd like a Fedora 16 based Backtrack, because then you get all of those preinstalled programs and an awesome distro. |

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux. |
