I have tested Knoppix, Mandrake/Mandriva, Fedora Core versions 2-6, and
OpenSuse 10.1, and find that, of these, one feature pops out as best in
OpenSuse: the support for NTFS. This is vital for people migrating from
WinXP, if you want to copy files from your Windows partition to a Linux
partition.
I found it difficult in OpenSuse to get updates to OOo, though. Fedora
was much easier, in which I just uninstalled the Fedora version and
installed the official OOo version.
Just my $.02,
Matt
Hi Matt
Just $.005 of correction there. I have had no problem _reading_ from an
NTFS partition in Mandriva, ubuntu or gentoo. The problem is writing to
NTFS which is not guaranteed by most distros.
