Have you downloaded the ISO (CD-ROM image) files for TurboLinux? If so, you'll need to
burn these to CD-R discs, using suitable CD burning software such as Nero Burning ROM.

Once you've done this, you'll need to prepare your HDD for a Linux installation, by using
a disk partitioning application such as PowerQuest Partition Magic. Set aside about 4GB
of unallocated space on your primary HDD, or better still, use a blank secondary HDD.

After setting the unaloocated space, reboot your PC from the Linux installation CD you
have created, The Linux installation program will automatically detect the blank space
on your HDD, and then automatically setup your Linux partitions when prompted.

Follow the prompts on the installer, and you'll have Linux installed within an hour or so.
