Randall,

to be having you operate under? Within that question, you shall find =
your answer. :-)

Greetings!
=20
I need to learn UNIX for my employer. I intend to do this at home. =
I have an 18-gig hard drive that I intend to install Windows 2000 server =
on as the primary OS. I would also like to dual boot with either Linux =
or FreeBSD to learn UNIX.
=20
Questions:
1. In reality, which OS is closer to AIX/Solaris/other System V in =
administration commands?
2. Will your OS dual-boot with W2K Server?
=20
Thanks!
