i have Mandrake 9-? on some cd's now.

I learned how to use Red Hat's Valhalla distribution of Linux before any
other and I thought it was pretty easy, but then again I had experience
with command line operating systems and I learn everything very fast...

The CDs are usually bootable, provided your motherboard supports it. In
the event that it doesn't, you can boot from a floppy and go from there.
As for help material, you can go to http://www.linux.org/docs/index.html
