Are there a load of linux based operating systems that are ideal for mining without too much complex setting up that I could install? I've wanted to do some coding for ages since my computing course, now this looks like a perfect way. I'd love to have a linux operating system to play around with in general. I found one that already exists here, not sure how good or reliable it is:

"Why should i use "SMOS-LTCRabbit-Edition" USB stick mining operating system?
LTC mining requires perfect configuration of your graphic card driver, operating system and the miner software cgminer. It is very hard to configure all this and get the maximum hashrate from your graphic cards.

Therefore, SMOS-Linux.org developed in cooperation with LTCRabbit a mining operating system, which is easy to use and requiring only a minimum of configuration. Just download the operating system, write it to a USB stick, boot your PC from the USB stick, enter you worker username and password (cgminer.conf) and start mining LTC. "

Just downloading it and will report back.
