tlug: libc or glibc,easy install



I at last seem to have time to install Linux (as dual boot with NT) on my
own machine , and I've got a few questions:

1.I've seen people talk about libc and glibc (or something like that), in
relation to kernels? Is glibc newer/better?

2.I heard that the RedHat CD on sale in Akihabara was a buggy version
(5.0?), so I'd end up having to download lots of replacements. Has that
changed?

3.Any recommendations/advice generally? I want it to be easy to install,
and not require me to invest lots of time learning/understanding things (at
the expense of speed, disk space and flexibility if neccessary).
