I was tricky. With the little Linux experience I have just gave my HDD to a friend, who gave it back with a minimal debian linux, enlightenment and MacOnLinux.
Since then I can manage everything :-) Even configured ADSL myself, downloaded KDE, etc, etc. :-)
To be honest I didn't even give it a try. (I had bad memories trying to install a potato alone for weeks, sweating: then in fact it turned out to be a broken distro... Nightmare for a beginner)
But that's me. I'm sure someone will help. (And there is the Beta2linux mailing list, if not :-))
