Hi everybody. I need a little help that I think could benefit us all. I am building a Linux box for a relative who hates Gates (who doesn't). I wanted to know the best components to use. I want as minimal crash potential or installation incompatibilites as possible. As of now I am planning on using Mandrake since it is easier to use for a beginner. So, what I'm askin is, what components are working well for you. What is the best to use that the OS will recognize. What's a good board and chip. The reason I need help is that I tried installing RedHat on my PC and It wouldn't even install, it just froze. And Mandrake wouldn't recognize half my ****. I think there was also some conflict with my Athelon processor. So, if you could help me outI think we all could learn what configurations are the best and learn more about Linux. Thanks.
