Mandrake, Suse, Corel, etc... did not exist yet.
the first gnu/linux distro that i've owned was Slackware 3.x. it was part of the book entitled "Linux Networks" by Volkerding (?) that i've used in college. but i never got a chance to install it, hehehe. maybe i got envious when my classmates start installing RH 5.x. coz their only problem with RH was to specify the partition while i have to figure out everything on slack. FreeBSD was even easier to install than slack back then. Mandrake is for my desktop/multimedia machine Debian at work RH for evaluation of new apps. and i'm not a geek nor a nerd. i'm just a rockstar(?) or an xtreme sports athlete (?) trapped in a programmer's body! hehehehe. i hate stereotyping anyway. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
