Dear lknoppix and debian user*s list. Thank you for all your answers. There is enough for a partly blind and very old man (79) to work through in the next week.
Linux is quite different from the open system, I am used to be on. I have noticed that Linux uses several partitions on the disk, where NetBSD only uses one which can be a part of an extended.partition. NetBSD comes with a tiny boot selector of its own. So there is a lot to learn. The reason, I have decided to go Linux as my second system is that NetBSD has a built-in Linux-emulator in its kernel to take care of systems like Adobe and Flash, and sometimes it uses rather old versions of libraries and binaries from Suse to run such binaries.
