Oh im so sad :(

I wouldn't even mess with ReiserFS if I were you. Just go with the ext3 which is what RedHat uses by default.

RedHat gives you more detail (doesn't hide anything from you, sound familiar?) which is why you see more granularity in the install. I don't know about you, but for me this is a *good* thing.  If you want even more granularity use Debian.

Just keep me away from that command line, and I should be happy.

Well then maybe you should try Windows. Have you heard of it?

Command line is the way to work.
GUI is the way to play.
Windoze (spits profusley into spitoon) is the way to rest. (cos it's for the Lazy...geddit, ha ha ha...ahem dried frogs pills I think).

Nothing wrong in using a GUI, like everything in Linux, it has a use. really recommending Windoze *spit*, well what a way to conduct yourself.

Hey I have nothing against command lines(I came from the 3.1/DOS era), except I don't know how to do anything besides change directories(under linux). Even after reading some command line stuff, im still scratching my head wondering how it would be useful to me.  

Oh come on, GUI's should be to save time, not just be for n00bs.

If you combine the two into "GUIs save time for n00bs" then you would have a valid point. And there really is no comparison between a DOS prompt and a UNIX shell prompt. Night and day...

Very true indeed! I like GUIs as well but when you get to know how to handle the command line, man you feel the power right on the tip of your fingertips   . Let alone that you can save a lot of time when you use the command line rather than any other GUI. I know that some people, coming from Windows, find it frustrating at first but when they practise on it a bit they can't stop!

[lazygamer]

Lol! Well I guess you don't know until your on the otherside. I suppose you also feel like a 1337 d00d doing awesome stuff at the command line.

[Pantso]

Not awesome stuff, just basic and everyday tasks if I may say

not only that but you will REALLY appreciate this when you go and attempt to do stuff at a command prompt in windows. OH FOR FUXX SAKE!!!!!

Oh, well I just told lazygamer what I think about the shell and the command line and I think that most of you guys here will agree. Now if lazygamer wants to compare the DOS command line        to the *NIX shell that's his problem. I still can't figure out though why he says that he scratches his head after reading about the command line. Must be a reflex thing.

Yes it's a reflex thing.
