Dummies Guide

Hi there,

I have an idle HP 712/60, and I want to install LINUX. My UNIX knowledge is limited to basic file and network operations. Is there a dummies guide to installing LINUX on the HP and do I have to be an expert?

What would the performance be like, in comparison with NT in Intel processors?

Regards

There really isn't an automated installer. Although it's missing some bits and pieces, above site has pretty thorough documentations, at least it'll get you started. I'm afraid that it may not be "dummy" friendly though, but give it a try.

Well, parisc linux is still in the works. Many features are missing at the moment, so I don't think it's in compare-able (is this a word?) shape.
