9.10 won't install. Installation stops mid cycle.
Don't think I'll try 10.04 as there seem to be a lot of problems with it according to the people 
writing in the Ubuntu forums. Probably it need a few months for the bugs to be fixed.
I think I'll just stick with GOS which works well. Even tried Centos 5.2 live and it seemed to be working well
until I tried to open a site with Firefox. The system then froze.
