[Grml] some linux distributions?

Hi,

Does anyone know why oralux and grml1.1 work, but grml 2008.11 and ubuntu 8.10 do not work on my computer? Why do some Linux distributions work, but others do not? or is there no definite answer to this? Also, how frequently or how susceptible is Linux to getting viruses and rootkits and trogens and worms?

Josh
