Hello, I would suggest you to stick with RH 7.3 and replace RH 8.1 with slackware 10 or mandrake 10.x .
I am using RH 7.3 from four/five years ... just keep it updating (gcc/kernel/patches etc).

Folks, I run "ancient" Linux distributions -- RH7.3 and RH 8.0 -- on the two PCs that I use regularly. I am thinking of upgrading to a more recent distribution now. I seek advice/suggestions from you all about what distribution to upgrade to. We all have our favourite distributions, so I shall be glad if you can tell me what the strong points of your favourite are. Presently I have with me the install CDs of FC3 and Slackware 10.1. From recent posts on the list I have been getting the feeling that people are not too happy with FC3. Why is that? What is the experience with Slackware 10.1? Sumeet Moghe, what say you? I'm willing to consider distributions other than these two, if they seem to have significant plus points.
