Finally thought i would give linux a go, decided on openSUSE because im quite partial to green 
Anyway every time i try to run it i encounter problems, mind you im trying to install it as a second partition with XP being the first. I tried with the DVD version first, went to install it, partitioned a hard drive then got a checksum error. Then tried via the network install method, got the installer up, tried to install it, partitioned the hard drive then got another error, could have been checksum related. Finally tried live CD today and when i go to run it the disc will load up, i'll select boot from disk then it'll come up with a image mount error, am i supposed to select something particular when installing as ive only ever selected the main parts of the installers.
EDIT: System specs are the one in my system specs. Also have a 60gig slave that i tried it on with no luck.
