[Tfug] windows to linux

[DON KIERZEK]

If you are using a CD, you will need to set the CD drive to first boot priority in the BIOS.  You didn't indicate which distribution you are using but usually you get options; use as Live CD without installing, install...  Some distros you load and have an Install icon on your desktop to start the installation.

Greetings TFUGGERS!



I've decided to wipe out my windows
on my home laptop and install linux, but naievely thought I could just
boot from the install disks.



been looking on the web for how to move
windows to linux and all I'm seeing is the rationale for doing so.



Do I need to do some kind of bios disk
thing first?
