I don't know too much about the different versions, but I was able to

Solaris isn't Linux.

So, having done all of that, I really have nothing to show, except I
can no longer access that partition from Windows (if I reformatted it,
I probably could). How can I get this to work? Is there an easier
Linux version to install and setup? Fedora? SUSE?

Fedora is by design a bit of a beta distribution. If you want something
RedHat-like, you might try CentOS. SuSE might also work.
