Well I actually would like to install as many systems possible (maybie not but at least very many) so suggestions are welcome. I know for sure I'll install: Archlinux, openSUSE, probably slack and some *BSD variant. But I don't know which BSD variant is most compatible with Acer laptops (I'd guess freeBSD though). So if you think of any systems in mind for combating please let me know. And please send me the article when it's done.
[edit]
btw, I don't have Partition magic nor money to buy it. Isn't there a non-costly way of partitioning?
