It really depends on personal preference and what you are looking for in a Linux distribution. However, if you are a beginner and looking for ease of installation, Suse would be a good choice. Suse has a user-friendly interface and a graphical installer that makes the installation process relatively easy. Mandriva and Fedora core also have user-friendly installers, but they may not be as beginner-friendly as Suse. Slackware and Debian, on the other hand, have more complex installation processes and may not be the best choice for beginners. Ultimately, it is recommended to try out different distributions and see which one suits your needs and preferences the best.
