 which linux distro is best?
I have a pentium2-300mhz, 3com ethernet card, PPPOE adsl connection, 64mb ram, 2 hard drives (4 and 2gb).
I want to learn how to use linux on it, and then use it as a linux machine once i've learned linix. Does anyone have any reccomendations for a distro of linux that is easy for a beginner to install and configure?

At the moment I'm downloading the 3 redhat ISOs, so I'll try it and report my results.

This isn't the best for a beginner, so you should probably learn the ropes using something else first.
But if you've got the time, it's the best way to learn about how linux works. It will probably also work better on your system than most packaged distros.
