I am wondering how can I learn more PC skills. PC as in installing Linux on a PC, and general Windows maintenance. I have two boat anchor computers to practice on, but I am really starting from zero with this. I understood Commodore 64 BASIC and I can use a solder gun, so I am quite sure I have the capability, but I don't know where to start. I tried installing Linux on a Pentium but I got as far as Boot Failure and didn't know where to start troubleshooting. What I need is someone to help me when I am going wrong. I wonder if the local computer store would help out if I ask nicely? hmmm.

Where can I get Knoppix? Business depot? Or by download? I was just going to get the other PC fixed by a repair shop, and have them install Linux... which I still might do. Hmmm.
