what i did from past 2 days

sunday i tried to install linux in a computer.
but whole day i got so many errors and problem while installing linux.some times cd drive problems,some times installtion cd are gave problem.i tried three diffrent linuxs, finally i installed debian linux like this.

1. first i partitioned the disk as LVM filesystem.while installing the linux it shows the LVM partitioning option.advantage of using LVM is after installing Linux,if you want to resize partitions, you can resize the partitions without losing data.

2. I installed debian text mode linux, later i updated to GUI mode using aptitude.

3. now system also boots very fast, before this on the machine there was edubuntu.edubutu took so much time to boot and also it took so much space
for installing OS.

4.I installed very minimal Xserver packages in it.

I don't like in Ubuntu automatic Network detection feature. some times it show networking is not detected, but when i do browsing the internet it willwork. Actually i frustrated with it when i try to configure wireless network in some laptops in our office.

But I liked the Ubuntu live cd,because you can use it as live cd and also you can
install Ubuntu using that if you want ,it's very simple when it runs as live cd it creates a install icon on the desktop .
