Unfortunately, I think I've erased the True64 partitions on my AlphaServers so I can't compare Debian GNU/Linux with True64 any longer. I tried installing OpenBSD on the Alpha, but I think there was something wrong with the CD-ROM I got... I didn't really want to try NetBSD and FreeBSD won't run on an Alpha, so I ended up installing Debian GNU/Linux. Why not the other distributions? RedHat was no longer updating their Alpha port, and I am really comfy with Debian GNU/Linux already, so it wasn't a difficult choice for me. I still have to get some minor things to work, but on the whole it performs really well.
thank u very much for the info =)
now i know why their staffs are having a lot of headaches with RH on Alpha.
i guess i'll be torturing them with DSELECT first, hehehehe.
