I'd been to the redhat world tour night in Sydney the night before and a friend wanted help setting up a server to run asterisk on, I'd picked up a fedora cd that night with the intension of trying it some time and kind of worked out well in that respect. Needless to say given a chance not to use fedora/redhat I'll take it every time.
Anyways I start to install Fedora, and told it to install the kernel etc during install, which it thought it had, but it hadn't and there was no way in hell I could get it to install it or uninstall it and dumped it for debian and literally had it up and running within minutes. I also asked for the shell browser etc to be installed but it wasn't till well after I found out redhat had no symlink to links from lynx (I've used lynx since as long as I've been using linux) so I guess they dumbed it down too much for users of other distro's to jump off the deep end with it, and force you to install a gui to get anywhere with it...
For those people wanting step by step instructions on a debian box with asterisk...
