Thanks, I appreciate the input. I had considered Gentoo and think I will give it a try. I might also try Debian. Do you think 20 GB partitions will be fine for each distribution?

If you really want to learn about the range of distributions of Linux, I suggest installing Fedora, Debian, and Gentoo. Then you'll get the gamut of the most popular Linux distributions. Once you're comfortable with Linux, nuke the Fedora and Debian installations and install FreeBSD and Solaris/x86. That'll be an adventure. -- Soren Harward <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- http://theboard.byu.edu/ "Americans are always attempting to run away from conformity, but unfortunately they always start running in the same direction." -- Art Buchwald _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://phantom.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/newbies
