What would be my best choice for a linux distro?

Q. i have a dell inspiron 1525. what would be my best choice for a linux distro? could someone maybe point me to a website with the most amount of info on the subject? i'm new to linux and would definately want to learn more about it.

A. I'd suggest Ubuntu or Linuxmint.

http://www.ubuntu.com/

http://www.linuxmint.com/

Ubuntu ought to be the best linux distro around.

Linuxmint is easier on beginner who just make transition from windows to linux

Well, i don't want to stuff you with bunch of confusing information.

Just download the image file from the web-site. Burn it onto a blank CD and boot live from it (it means you get to use it without messing up anything)

For ubuntu, you can try WUBI if you're afraid of repartitioning and mess up everything

Have fun exploring the best operating systems on earth

How do I modify a Linux distro so it can run from a jumpdrive?
Q. I would like to know how one can turn a linux distro image into a bootable jumpdrive version. Any help at all, even if just a link, is appreciated.

A. What kind of a computer system do you have? Assuming it is Windows based, take a look at:
http://www.mcnlive.org/ ...a forum is available at:
http://mandrivausers.org/index.php?showforum=54

This is a distribution that has a built in wizard to make a LiveUSB version for you from the LiveCD. It also has a persistent mode so that packages you add and changes you make are preserved from session-to-session. Additionally, it has the ability to remaster it's self while running LIVE, if you have sufficient RAM {768mb up}. This means that you can add specific packages you need and create your custom version without having to install it to the HD first. The remastering is done by using the built in wizard.

MCNLive is based on Mandriva 2007 'Spring' which is based on Red Hat/Fedora. It is pre-configured to a large repository of compatible application packages, and you can add additional repositories from other compatible sources.
