There is no perfect distro, but I really like gentoo. You have to put in some hard compile time, and you have to get used to a different install method and unique boot scripts, but it's really the only way for me. I did a reinstall in January just to check out the install process again, but other than that there was no need. You just install the upgrades as they come at your leisure. You just do "emerge rsync" and then "emerge -pu world" every couple of weeks to see what's new for your specific install base. Install upgrades while you surf and mail. Dan Robbins keeps saying that he doesn't recommend it yet for a server environment, but I don't see why not. It's more stable that anything I've ever used. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
