You left out the Pacific Hi-Tech "TurboLinux 1.2" (Walnut Creek) and the
"Linux Pro 5.4" (WorkGroupSolutions) both from Linux Mall. May be others?
I am trying them all, but so far have only done RedHat and TurboLinux. Being a
newbie, I haven't yet got my network running with any OS, though packets are
sent and received. RedHat and TurboLinux loaded equally well on my Cyrix P166+
(Soltek 54
mainboard) and the ASUS TX97-E with Intel PR233MMX overclocked to 373.50 Mhz.
Being a nuts&bolts techie for 35 years helps in the hardware, but the set up
is sticky. BTW, Linux loads 700+MB of programs in about 19 minutes on the
373Mhz
machine, and about 56 minutes on the P166+. I see that SUSE has bugs in Yast.
Redhat
seems to load itself with Autoboot in \Dosutils, as does Linux Pro and
TurboLinux1.2.
Caldera OpenLinuxLite loaded from CDROM boot track (ASUS TX 97-E). Caldera
includes some really great programs that are commercial and need to be
registered
within 60(?) days. I am having trouble settling on which one I like best!
Haven't had
a chance to obtain FreeBSD or InfoMagic distributions.
