openSUSE Tumbleweed: The openSUSE distribution will probably love it, though it differs from other Debian-based Ubuntu Linux distributions.
Although these distributions are preferred by millions of users, I will focus on something that makes openSUSE stand out:
Its code base is Enterprise (from SUSE Linux Enterprise to be exact). So there is a solid foundation that the openSUSE project community is stepping on for development. The distribution has two different versions, the stable LTS version of openSUSE, but also the Tumbleweed rolling version.
Tumbleweed contains the latest packages of every software packaged by the openSUSE project. The latest kernel, the latest libraries, the latest environments work. Everything in Tumbleweed can and does change all the time.
I personally consider openSUSE a very reliable and "Easy" distribution as long as you take the time to learn the amazing yast. Of course I suggest you try it and you will see that it has nothing to do with the Ubuntu philosophy.

I choose an expert to create my own, and not automatically, since my system contains other operating systems.
I select a partition for the root (/) for configuration and I also give the partition for the boot without selecting the "format" since it contains bootloaders from other operating systems.
We're ready with the trays. Let's define the time zone
and the extra user outside the root
We are ready. The following screen will show us all the settings:
One click starts the installation:
When it's done it will ask you to restart. If you're using other operating systems and haven't tampered with main boot, your computer won't show openSUSE as it needs to be seen by main operating system.
So with a boot on my main boot system I give the following command:
That's it! If you are interested download the ISO
