3.4.2. We're kept supplied with both bug fixes and security updates as well as entire upgrades to new releases. The former are part of SuSE-supplied support, the latter are supplied by third parties on an as-is, at-your-own-risk basis. > - What is the default filesystem type for Suse, can I choose Reiser > via the install? Reiser is the default. Many are available, including the one I choose, for my primary file systems, XFS. > - Will redhat RPM's work on a Suse install ? Some may. For the most part, if their dependencies are met, you stand a fair chance, but there can still be conflicts in some cases if the dependent packages are not configured compatibly. > - Where do In find additional sources for updates (Like adding repo's > for yum) and how do I configure them ? > > - What's the best sources of help.

It has excellent stability, as we've come to expect from SuSE. You would choose the commercial version one or more of these reasons: 1) Bigger package complement, including some very popular but non-OSS software, most prominently media-related software. 2) To get this software on a single dual-layer DVD. 3) To generate funds to help support continuing releases of the best commercially supported Linux release there is. > Thanks in advance for all your help Randall Schulz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
