Is there a significant difference in Linux implementations? Is Ubuntu one of the better ones? Does it make a difference for running D2?

It took me a couple of tries to get it right (mostly because I couldn't decide how to partition the disk) but the installation process was so painless that it wasn't hard to redo it. Now I'm getting acquainted with the OS. :-)

Good luck! Always afraid of unfamilar territory, I first tried Linux in 
a dual-boot setup too, several years ago. I think it took about a week 
before I deleted the Windows partition, and I've been using Linux 
exclusively ever since. :)
