how to setup wifi, installing edubuntu (partitioning)

[Leonard Slutsky]

Hello.

I'm a newbie to edubuntu, so all help I can get would be greatly  
appreciated.

How do I configure edubuntu to see my Airport Extreme router from the  
iMac I plan to install it on?

How do I partition (in "plain english") part of my iMac's hard drive  
for edubuntu?

Is there a welcome guide somewhere online that can familiarize me  
with the os's basics?

Thank you everyone for your amazing developments.
