Thank you Alan for this marvellous tutorial. I've been using Windows for about 12 years and have often wanted to try the Linux OS that seems to be getting so much favourable press coverage these days, and even mentions in main-stream PC mags.
Watching your web-cast was almost like having someone in the room with us and we are about to install Feisty Fawn on our main PC in dual-boot; we found some presentation slides which were very good, but not as helpful as your video.
The only question I had remaining was how I could boot into XP first, as my wife (we are both in our 60s) isn't too keen on leaving XP yet, and that has been answered on another page of the same site.
Again, many thanks for your work - I would like to see other videocasts of yours so I shall watch this site closely.
