As I am working to evaluate the various distributions, I'd have to say that
SUSE was a bit disappointing.  Although this is in the field of "personal
choice" and not "technical merit"... I prefer RedHat's one CD install.
Once the system is up, then I can go back and add other packages.  The fact
that I had to spoon-feed SUSE 6 CD's to install was lame.

The only demerit I've had for Caldera was that it still seeks out
the first SCSI BUS (an ISA in my case) and try's to install linux
on my temp-disk (instead of the PCI/SCSI).
