Linux is`nt something like an exe which you could run under Windows, Linux is an operating system so you need to install it the "same" way as installing Windows XP. Download a linux distro (iso file) burn it on a cd, take a clean/empty harddisk as 1st harddisk and select boot from cd in you bios and happy installing. The point is most people are just to lazy, read some install guides/tutorials and it cant be that hard (even Skunk can do it )

Just forget the whole idea about running Linux under Windows, you wont get it done properly and/or smooth.
Install a dedicated Linux O/server. (Suse,Debian,Fedora or whatever)

ok, do u think linux will increase my update rate? cuz if it doesnt i might not run server untill september when i get my hardcore comp.. cuz the temp server i have people can see for 2.0 but they timeout cuz of the update rate not being god enuf... and if i run server on my ok comp i cant run and play cuz i dont got xp.. i got windows 2000 so.... yea..
