Re: Switching distros
Matt_Minton, I know of NO "gotchas" with Mint. I actually migrated from another linux distro (kde based) to Mint 4.0 and I assure you that you WILL NOT be disappointed with this distro! Welcome aboard!
Neither is there in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12.

Yes. During the install you will be asked if you want to format your partitions or notmatt_minton wrote:Will installing Mint be as simple as formatting the Linux partitions and doing a fresh install?
