which distro of linux do I use?

[Saqib Shaikh]

I would still say that Zipspeak would be the most convenient method of
installing on a shared computer. Could you possibly give more details on
what you mean by "it won't detect my c drive"?

Do you mean that you can't boot into dos?

Hi Guys.  Well, I've gotten tired of waiting for the chance for a new pc
and decided to put linux on the family computer.  I of course plan to
make lilo come up with a boot prompt so I can boot windows.  I just want
to try linux, but I can't get into dos and run zipspeak because it won't
ditect my C drive when I try changing dirs to it  I think debian,
because it can install over ftp, but slackware has an easier install.
Which one do you think would be good for a newbee?
