[ydl-gen] Installation

[Luix Gaztañaga]

The thing is that I have an old imac and before throwing to the trash I
would like to run any  Linux distro in a rather easy way ( without using
terminal). Is that possible without  getting frustrated?.I have tried,
kubuntu 10.10, xubuntu 10.10, debian 5.0,,ubuntu 8.04,,ubuntu 6.10 . I have
a similar situation to Yellow Dog with Debian but I can't reach the desktop.
Linux will be free software but it is not user friendly.
