Dear debs
Could anyone using (or having used) Slackware please tell me what's
(particularly) good about it? -> What particular things made you
choose Slack?
>From what I've read, it's probably the distro closest to the
"roll-your-own" type of thing. Correct?
Slack's package format is ".tgz"; correct? Is that a plain tar file, like
the ending suggests or what?
Now, whilst we're at it; I'd also like to hear what's special about
(Net|Free|Open)BSD.
Firstly, what are the differences between them all?
And, how do they compare to (Debian GNU /) Linux ... and to each other?
Which are free? (Suppose OpenBSD sounds pretty free :)
I've never used anything but {Debian GNU,SuSE} / Linux and AIX.
(Talking about real OS' here, so I'm not counting winhose :)
Thanks
Sven
