to make things even easier, you can do stuff exactly as in the handbook (partition numbers and everything) or just make sure to modify accordingly, for example it says hda1 = / hda2 = boot and hda3 = swap and say on your harddrive hda1 is windows, then make sure that you modify the above by saying hda2 = / hda3 = boot and hda4 = swap and stuff like that.
also on thei skipping, DONT! unless it tells you to. There are some sections of the handbook that are like for "PPC users only" or for "RaiserFS users only" and if you compile it on a x86 and use ext3, none of those sections apply, so DO skip.
10GB should be enough, but i'd go with 15gb just in case.
(i have 40gb on linux with a goal of it to be my primary os)

All are not perfect on my my m6811. Personally I liked Slack the best. Gentoo too steep learning curve. Fedora not good. Suse lots of included software but thats it. Debian ok. Knoppix a little better than Debian. Ubuntu too drab so what all the fuss about? Kanotix getting close.
now we are talking. It just works! Now it's forum and support system is not as good as unbuntu but really haven't needed it , due to texstar's fine devlopement. As Abf said it's a livecd so try it, If you like it then install. It doesn't change (theme's , look etc. what you see is what you get) from livecd like some knoppix based cd's do.
