Guest repliedRe: Try SuSE
Aye, I'd agree, use suse, I find the hardware support is more up-to-date than say Red Hat. Or maybe it detects new hardware better.....
Install Win98 first, or it'll crap over LILO/Grub.
Have fun,

Suse is a nice distro from Germany. They have got excellent tech support and comes bundled with lots of software. The cd contains the software that partitions the disk for you.

Guest repliedMandrake can also be installed to run under Windows. Probably slower, I did not actually try that option, but if you simply want to check out Linux rather than do heavy stuff with it that might be worthwhile and it saves the considerable hastles of partitioning. If you do partition, Mandrake also comes with Boot Magic, you do not need to use Lilo.

Guest repliedLinux comes with either Grub or LILO, both of which enable dual booting.
With a 56k dial up, I've never downloaded a distro but there are often cover disks out there with a full install.
