I wanted to try out Debian and a couple of other OS’s - which I’m sure that when I download I will be able to muddle out the installation procedure.
Now I’m open to new ideas AND I’m not a complete thicky with computers, but I am thoroughly confused about which files I should download from Opensource sites.
Nearly all these sites refer to different architecture types of installation:
SPARC
i386
etc.
Now I am guessing i386 refers to a normal home PC?
So what the hell are those other types?
(Just for info my home PC is a Dell 1.8Ghz with 256Mb memory.)
Oh - anyone used Debian - any good?
