I'm thinking of installing some Linux maybe python to mess around and try to learn here are the specs: 1g ram 150g hd, pentium m 1.7 ghz any help or suggestions is much appreciated thank you.
 
So you are trying to format a partition to ext3 (or something to that effect) for Linux?

What did you do with DBAN? How are your systems set up?
