    What should I do?

    Hello all,

    I need some help to choose something.

    Some stuff recently happened, and we have to move back to England for safety. I am left with 2 options, until my computer comes by cargo.

    1. My Dad's laptop.

    2. My XBOX.

    With my dad's laptop I could run a live CD, but with XBOX I could install a version of damnsmalllinux.

    What do You think I should do?

    Thanks from

    onlinebacon

    "Borrow" the laptop and like Game master pro said, install linux on it.

    Installing on the laptop is not an option, cos it is my dads and has a lot of important data on it for his work.

    Would it be OK to do a live CD, or should I use linux on my xbox?

    why not do both, run a live cd on laptop and install DSL on the XBOX. I don't think running live cd on laptop wil cause any harm to come to it, unless ofcourse you try to reformat or repartition the drive :P
