Ready to power up my machine tonight and test Linux Mint Debian Xfce, or should I try one of the many other distros? We will soon find out. I would like to hear a basic description of how to install Linux Mint Debian. I am still fairly new to Linux. I struggled with Ubuntu only because it was on a netbook. Still I am a Linux fan. This will now be on a PC.
If someone could give me a quick break down of the installation. Such as for Ubuntu it is easy to understand as>
1. Ubuntudownload
2. PentestLinux.com
3. Download onto 8GB flashdrive
4. Restart computer
5. Boot into BIOS
6. Set Sandisk at the top
7. Exit BIOS
8. Install Ubuntu
If I remember right this is how installing Ubuntu went basically.
I tried watching a video on Youtube, but they were on virtual machines I think except for one, but I would like to hear your advice as well.
