Fedora core 2 is more stable than PCQLinux. It uses 2.6 kernel. you'll lack some features like usb support in pcqlinux. But pcq linux has lots of tools bundled with. i suggest u to install fedora core 2, and if u need those tools bundled with pcq linux, you can install it using the rpms.

PS :Any redhat based distro (ie fedora or pcqlinux) needs high system requirements, if you have a pc with atleast 256 mb RAM, you can opt Fedora, otherwise go for soe other distros like Mandrake or Xandros)

i am one of the lesser mortals living in the IT city of bangalore who do not have a broadband. All the downloads are done using a BSNL dialup (I have the Rs 499/- second internet line) . The downloads are not that heavy if you compare it with debian's aptitude or fedora's yum method the emerge command in gentoo is realy great (and fast).

I have found "Running Linux" by O'Reilly is really a good Book on GNU/Linux ! You people may try this....

Shroff Publication has its Indian Reprints...

I learnt linux by trial and error (rescue CD sometimes)

Now i know almost 72-75% of it.

Well, any problem arises, then just do a google dance and it gets solved...
