Given the recent interest in resurrecting and maintaining the old
Caldera distro, I thought I'd take a minute to ask everyone to quantify
what it was about eD (or eS) that was so great. Was it the file layout?
The installer? The GUI tools? What? I used and loved eD, but find it
hard to say why I felt it was so nice. I *think* a lot of my fondness
has to do simply with familiarity... once I learned "the Caldera way" on
OpenLinux, eD was such a natural progression that I think a lot of my
'it was so great' is simply because I *knew* it.. however, I now 'know'
SuSE, but don't have the same warm fuzzy when talking about it as I do
when talking about eD....
It seems to me that it would be a *lot* easier to start with a current
base system (perhaps LFS based) and then mold it to be whatever it was
about eD that everyone liked instead of taking an old eD and upgrading
it (remember that eD wasn't even ready for 2.4.x and 2.6.x is right
around the corner).
So, what *specifically* made eD so great?
