Well, I managed to snag a copy of RH 6.0 today at CompUSA. I am into my third attempt to install it on my IBM ThinkPad, and I keep running into this issue of the root partition being too small even though when I fdisk it, it's set to 31 MB. Anyway, I will continue to play and will update. For those interested, I am formally evaluating what I consider the the main distributions of linux (Caldera, RedHat & Suse). My evaluation criteria are still in development, but I have assembled copies of each and hope to do several installs during the week. If anyone wishes to participate in documenting the evaluations, please drop me an email. I hope to wrap everything up within 2 weeks. Current prices: RH 6.0 $59 CompUSA Caldera 2.2 $29 CompUSA Suse 6.1 $34 MicroCenter (can't find receipt, but I think it's right) +------------------------ | christoph | linuxguy at ici.net | http://home.ici.net/~linuxguy - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
