My first linux experience was with debian, and although it was a little
rough at the beginning, I got things sorted out. Just take things
slow, one step at a time. Know I don't know how I did it, but I
confused myself to no end trying to install a full system with X,
gnome, and a bunch of apps all in one go from the CD. Big mistake.
Get something simple working, and then go from there. In general, that
will make your life a lot easier.
Happy hunting,
