“OK, this really won’t be a total review. Essentially I’ll
describe the install process in an abbreviated manner. For
those of you who want to install Linux for the first time, or if
you’ve used other distributions before and want to know what to
expect, this page tries to lay that out….

“This seems to use the Red Hat text based install program. Since
it’s very similar to the LinuxPro install I’ll just point you to
those images when they are the same. Obviously the Turbo Linux
screens say Turbo Linux in the upper left hand corner. The first
difference is at boot time – the option of a 50 line screen differs
from other text based installers. No option to install in an Asian
language of some sort though, I was thinking that would be
nifty.”
