Ive got a 20GB HDD sitting next to me here that im going to stick Linux on.

But, which one?

Ill be connecting to a Windows network to access the net and id prefer one with really good noob support/documentation built in.

Any suggestions?
 
Right ive downloaded Ubuntu and installed it to the 20GB HDD.

My setup is:

2 Sata Drives (80GB PRI & 250GB SEC)
1 x DVD-RW (set to primary)
1 x 20GB IDE (on same cable as DVD-RW and set to secondary)

On start up i dont get an option of which OS to boot up, is this because the HDD is set as a secondary??

Reason its like this is because i can be bothered to walk the 10mins home to get another cable :P

Or is it something else??
