the only thing i really like about my mac over windows is the terminal it comes with. my coworkers are apple fanboys, and i was shocked they didn't know how to use the terminal.

Putty / Cygwin / winscp etc are very good terminal/ssh emulators, however, with root disabled by default and no sudo commands i find it a bit frustrating, ubuntu terminal >
/edit on topic, most people u meet who use mac osx / ios will not be using it for its (unix) capability, but for its simplicity.

That's such bs, never met an Apple guru who didn't know his way around Terminal.



Ubuntu is African for cannot install Gentoo.

If you are using a usb to install linux then install and once you reboot, unplug usb device and hit f-8. Go into BIOS. Choose linux as your new OS. Let the system reconfig boot process and youll be fine. You can also create a new partition on your hard disk so you can switch from linux os to windows. Message me if you need help.

USB didn't help so I put it on a CD this time
here's what I get when I boot from it

Post a screen shot of START > Search Box > Disk management, please.
