A very easy Linux installation tutorial by Eric Steven Raymond is here. We know, Linux is a implementation of Unix for inexpensive personal machines (it was developed on 386s, and now supports 486, 586, Pentium, PowerPC, Sun Sparc, ARM and DEC Alpha hardware, and even the IBM System 390 mainframe). It supports a wide range of software, including X Windows, Emacs,
TCP/IP networking (including SLIP), and many applications. It distributable for free of cost. This document assumes that you have heard of and know about Linux, and now want to get it running. It
focuses on the Intel base version, which is the most popular, but much of the advice applies on Power PCs, Sparcs and Alphas as well.
