Hello everyone,
I'm currently interested on installing any kind of Linux (I don't have a lot of experience with it) and using an old desktop as a dedicated server. Can anyone provide me with a full, step-by-step guide on how to install some sort of Linux which runs DD?
My goal is to have such a server that displays on the hub with no key.
Thanks in advance!

Sure. Just pick the appropriate install options not to include a desktop, or use a server install disk.
As it goes though, I install the UI anyway as it's pretty cheap on system resources, and the command line is available either way. |

Ubuntu's desktop install is so simple, I'm pretty sure my mum could do it at this point.

Generally speaking, installing Linux distros themselves are extremely easy, click click done.
