No I have in the past two weeks installed Slamd64(64 bit Slackware www.slamd64.com) Which I love because I have been using Slackware for about 3 or four years. The install went well. latest Ubuntu 64 bit which detected my nic latest Gentoo which didnt detect my nic and I found the install process so rediculous that I didnt continue trying. Fedora Core 6 which did detect my nic but its update process has problems that I dont like.
