I am a happy man, I finally have Fedora Core 8 running on my machine that too with no risks of loosing Dell's support on the laptop as they support only Windows XP and Vista!
Yeah, VMWare it is baby!
VMWare 6 and Fedora Core 8 with the new version of Ananconda is a cakewalk for even a n00b!!
Well, I definitely count myself in that category and so it is good news for y'all!!
If you have a Dell or any other brand's laptop running some version of Windows with your laptop's manufacturer supporting only Windows and you're craving to lay your hands on a Linux baby, get VMWare!!!
I did have a hard time finding a Linux installation DVD as the SuSe disk I was supposed to get came out to be corrupt and Ubuntu ships only their shitty Live CD now.
That was one hell of a disappointment.
I got this Fedora Core 8 DVD free with the December issue of Linux for You magazine!
I dont normally subscribe to it but the moment I saw it was offering what I wanted so badly, gotcha!!
And here's a screenshot to make the likes of Subhobroto Sinha further jealous! ;)
I am sure you recognize the blue desktop!
Dont you?
