Well, perhaps my pen-familiarity is emboldening me, but I really don't think it's that dif

ficult.

As long as you can follow the on-screen instructions, and can understand the few decisions you might be asked to make, you'll be fine.

It won't ask you anything too technical, I'm sure.

It'll start off by asking you what partition of your disk you want to install the OS on - if you've only got one partition, that's a no-brainer. It might even, at that point, allow you to repartition your drive, so you could do that too, if you wanted.

It'll ask you for your licence code, ask you which language packs and locale info you want to use default will be a US english dictionary, and US Locale info, so you'd want to change that to British english and british locale info (things like date format so you see dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy).

And that is essentially it. You can alter the configurations after it's installed and running. I don't think there's any configuration options in the install process that you can't change after installation easily enough (with the exception of drive partitioning - you can change that afterwards, but it's not so straightforward).

Gwarrrrrn.
