This does not quite answer your question, but there is this new (very new, it's not yet released) Linux distro called SourceMage (http://www.sourcemage.org/). It's entierly based on sources (I was told). A friend tried it and is rather pleased with it. However he said it takes forever to install, for obvious reasons (everything is compiled on your machine). Once it's installed it's said to be very fast. The downloadable .iso is 80MB, so I guess it's worth a try. > All opinion and viewpoints are welcome and eagerly sought > TIA Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
