I have started this thread to unleash the TOP Tricks that can help any newbie to go rushing hand on Linux operating system. First issue that should be resolved is to choose which linux operating system to install for getting started with it.

To install: Open "D" You can not install Linux, it knows that is no drive letter. If you delete the partition and leaves free, should the Mandrake setup grab this non-partitioned space and divide it so as it sees fit. Various tips for optimal partitioning you'll first be left out - if it should be seriously anyway you install at least one new
You should also let the boot manager to write to disk - then Linux will only start when the disk is inside. The boot sector on C remains intact and without the disk starts Windows normally.
Please guys, Let this thread go on for helping all the Linux Newbies.
