Get a copy of mandrake, the install program has it's own partitioning utility built in, it's pretty straight forward and easy. Just be sure to ghost your win32 partitions before you install. Believe me you, if my ripe old dad can do it, so can you . . . .

Linux is much better with the networking, but it is a little more difficult to configure.
