do you mean access your windows files in linux, or run windows applications?
for the former, all you have to do is mount your windows partition. man mount has all you'll need to know about that....

you might be able to, depending on how much ram you have.
but there's no reason to, other than as an academic exercise. especially if it has no NIC, then its just completely useless.
you can...

do you have a network card in the box? if yes, and its supported, a debian net install is identical to a cdrom install (booting off floppy).

in general freebsd is the best for the x86 platform. if you want to run a *nix on your toaster, try netbsd, it'll run on anything. and though they're all more secure then the NSA, openbsd goes that...

why not just:
tar -cxvf all.tar.gz / --exclude="/proc"
(i think that's the syntax)

i just put together a nice debian installation on an old sparc lx that i use as a web/mail server. i'm using exim as the MTA, and it works for the most part. i can send and recieve mail no problem...

look into the compact installation set. if you have standard hardware, you should only need the root and rescue disks to install. that is how i installed der deb on this machine.

swap isn't really neccessary. if you have 256 mb of RAM you might want some swap, but you shouldn't need it all that much. it depends on how you use your system.

i use audiogalaxy in both windows and linux and it works beautifully. it only deals in .mp3 files, however, and use a web-based interface.
kazaa makes a linux client (only an alpha release),...

i've got me a matrox g400 dualhead card (the kind with two vga outs). i've been trying to get the dualhead working in debian (sid), and since the powerdesk utility won't compile, i was doing it the...

civ3 is evil. you start the game, then next thing you know its 14 hours later and you haven't eaten, urinated or studied for finals...its a damn time warp, i swear.

i find it ironic that in a thread slagging evangelism, you are the greatest evangelist of them all.
C/C++ is currently the best option for runtime performance in major applications. that is why...

I know this has likely been discussed before, but here we go again.
I just finished setting up a beautiful, perfectly working debian sid install. E

i upgraded to testing last week, and my mouse is also wonky, though it'll occasionally start working right. i've tried just about every protocol there is to no avail, when i get back to that box i'm...

the easiest way to switch windowmanagers, at least in my (admittedly limited) expierience, is to edit the file called .Xinitrc in your home directory. change it to:
exec gnome-session

have you tried getting to gnome manually? i.e. changing your .Xinitrc to exec gnome-session (or whatever it is for gnome).
