Now i'm think Crunchbang Linux, but are there any other ones that arent to hard but also not that easy ether?? I'm probaly asking for to much.....

Answer 1

I thoroughly recommend Fedora 13 for being a fine intermediate distro.



Fedora 13 Download

Fedora 13 Installation Guide

Fedora 13 User Guide

You download the ISO. image of Fedora 13 then you need to create a Bootable LiveCD for installation



Fedora 13 can also be run direct from the LiveCD from Booting up without touching your Hard Drive



Also worth considering :



Fedora Remix (Fedora with elements of Linux Mint)

Again Fedora Remix can be run direct from the LiveDVD without touching your Hard Drive



Also you can try out as many different Linux distros. as you like on LiveCD until you find the one thats right for you DISTROWATCH.COM gives full listings (second lists the major distributions)
