I have a really noobie question...

I have used red hat on my servers for the past 3 years, however after being very dissapointed with red hat 8.0 and red hat 9, I have installed Manrake 9.2.

When lilo loads up, it gives me a whole heap of options. So...

What's the difference between linux-secure, linux, and linux-nonfb?

Thanks in advance.

im guessing linux-secure is more secure (who knows for what?), linux is normal (pick that), and linux-nonfb is like linux but in the terminal that you comuter has (in other words no grafics just text and only text and its usuly like 25x80 chars a screen (umm im thinking more tho)
