You can do, but is that wise?

When playing with a new operating system I follow a standard pattern...

1. make sure I have all the media to build the box from scratch

2. make sure there is no information on the box that I need to keep

3. document my steps as I build the system

4. test the system

5. if things aren't how I wanted, I often go back to the begining again

So you may have a system that is out of action for a number of days.

Similarly, if you are trying to set up dual booting and you make a mistake you can trash all partitions on the machine.

I run Solaris on a very old Sparc lunchbox, precisely because I don't care if I have to rebuild it. Solaris-10 386 also happily runs on my 300Mhz 686 box with 256Mb RAM. But choose the network card carefully.

Not quite sure what you mean by that, you would be sunk if we bombarded you with every tidbit that floats around the net.

I suggest that you monitor sites on the net that interest you, for example this site, "slashdot.org" is another site of current topical interest. As you start following links you will build up a picture of what information is available on the net, and what you want to keep in touch with.
