5.yes ther is a small chance you could mess of your system. a very small chance if you do everything correctly.

6.linux can not get viruses because it is not a PC.

7.yes you need a usb keyboard and mouse.

8.you will need to find a version of linux that is on a cd, or download a version of linux that is a cd image, then burn it on a cd.
