Blag Linux and Gnu (BLAG) is a Fedora Core 3 based distribution of the Linux kernel and Gnu utilities which runs on the x86 processor. BLAG aims to provide a totally free (as in speech) operating system, and it is one of only 5 distributions which are free by the standard of GNU. With this information in hand I thought I'd give it a spin.

After I booted from the CD, I was dropped at a boot prompt, where I was instructed on how to do a default graphical, and default text install. It also gave instructions on how to discover more booting options using the function keys.

Since I wanted the default graphical install I hit enter, and was prompted to test my install CD for errors, which took a minute or two. The CD passed, and I was greeted a few seconds later with the Anaconda installer.

Anaconda is a simple to use graphical installer, very much like YAST on SuSE.
