I have never actually used Mandrake. I've heard good things about it on the desktop. It's good to know that it has automated updates, though. > And there's Ximian's red-carpet. I find it's better then rpmdrake. Of > course, I don't want the Ximian desktop on my servers..... I've never really liked red-carpet. It's always seemed a bit tempermental, especially on dependancy checking. I also wouldn't install it on my servers. I have three different selections floppies. One for desktop systems, one for laptops, and one for servers. Once the base is installed and everything gets installed from the selections floppy/apt-get, I manually install the system-specific pakages, usually from source.
