Thanks DOTT.EVARISTI, but Mandriva kept crashing, so in a burst of anger I cleaned it of my disk!
Ah! If I was a bit younger...you seem divine & intelligent!
Rare qualities for one mec!

Seems, reading the mail, that people aren't all as young as I thought at first view

Looking for my 'perfect' distro, I've found loads that are more or less unknown. I'll make a list of
'obscures' if anyones interested.
I'll probably end up with a long multiple boot list...

>> "Looking for my 'perfect' distro ..."

simple , if i would do it all over again right now ... that would be slackware(or variants) , ubuntu , freebsd and solaris ... either on single machine or multiple machines ...

as for your "list of 'obscures'" ... doesnt matter , just use whatever space you can see ...

Cool Search the distro "perfect"

Seeing the mail from Aussie Land (hi cheeseandpenguins!)reminded me. Trying out various distros, I used Puppy as a LiveCD waiting time, & I love it.Puppy215CE, 216.1, Various derivatives (Pupplets), & I'm in my element at last! Try it out at :- puppy-linux.info.
It's got all you need for the big machines & the stuck in the cupboard, out of the Ark(of Noa, I mean) antiquities!. I'm making my own 'Pupplet' & I'll let you all know when it's done.
Good linuxing to all.
Ciao for now!!
