Is it okay to learn Linux before Unix?

Q. I'm intending to learn unix solaris and someone advised me to learn Linux fedora or redhat before trying solaris and that they are almost the same.. So shall I go with his advise or is it better to start learning unix directly.. Please tell me what to do regarding this matter?

A. All distributions of Linux (Fedora, Redhat, ubuntu) are based on unix. If you learn any of them first, then Unix will be easier to understand and vice-versa.

If you ultimately plan to learn Unix Solaris, then why not just go for that and don't spend time on an intermediate step that will have some differences, however small they may be

Both ways will probably take about the same amount of time.

How do i install ubuntu for my ps3 without downloading linux/fedora?
Q. Ive downloaded the iso file for ubuntu and everything but always get an error or something at the kboot screen......Was I suppose to install linux or fedora first? what do i do???

A. Ubuntu is a Linux distribution, and Fedora is a completely different Linux distribution. Unfortunately, Ubuntu is not designed for the PS3. There may be a small Linux distro available for PS3, but right now it would probably be in very early development and barely usable.

I am a home computer user who wants to install Linux. Which version should I install?
Q. like there are many versions of linux - fedora mandriva and sh*t .
which one is the most suitable for me?
thxx :P

A. I thoroughly recommend Linux Mint 7 Main Edition which is built upon Ubuntu 9.04 Its easy to install and easy to use plus it comes with much of the software you are likely to need preinstalled

You download the ISO. image of Linux Mint 7 then you need to create a Bootable LiveCD for installation

Linux Mint 7 can also be run direct from the LiveCD from Booting up without touching your Hard Drive

ALSO WORTH CONSIDERING LINUX MINT 6
