Hi, I’m a new user to Linux… I have downloaded Linux mint 10 from the Linux website but, when i tried to install it on my Desktop, i’m unable to complete the installation because when it comes to the window “”who are you?”” My forward button shows as Unavailable… I have filled all the fields correctly but still no result…. Please Help….
That could only happen if you neglected to fill a required field. If you can, grab a screenshot of the step you are having issues with and post at the forum.

That review is really impressive. A friend of mine also did a review of Linux Mint 10 on my blog and I need to get it but I am a big fan of Mac computers.

Mint is just another respin of Ubuntu that uses the Ubuntu installer, the Ubuntu package management system, and the ubuntu security updates. There is a Mint version using pure debian, but it is very unstable and has a security hole in it.
Is it the “Ubuntu package management system?” Or the Advanced Packaging Tool, which is the Debian package management system.

I’ll be giving this a try tonight as a development environment via virtualbox.

In this reviews first sentence you claim that Mint 10 is based on Ubuntu, but as I recall this version of mint is based on Debian rather than Ubuntu and that mint is trying to distance itself from Ubuntu. Is this incorrect?

never mind, after a little research I’ve found the Debian version just to be a separate distro LMDE. My bad
Impressive menu thingy. I can see the kde people wanting to nick it. And why shouldn’t they? Open source is like that.
Can you please review Pinguy OS 10.10?
