I'm getting into this discussion late. Slackware 8 is extremely easy to install and configure off the CD set. It's the best example of generic Linux from my config point of view. I did have some issue with partitioning the disk with lots of partitions which I favor.
On the other hand Debian appears easier to maintain and upgrade, but I'm only guessing here because I'm still having install problems. I want to do some work on the LEAF project using a virtual environment and that's being done on Debian hosts, so I figured I'd give Debian another try. -- Sincerely, David Smead http://www.amplepower.com.
