I am barging in on this thread here, but Mandrake has usually had a better installer than others since version 7.0. By better, i mean it is a nice functional GUI that has lots of options for a relatively new Linux user. The auto-probe is also decent and mandrake usually has patches built into the kernel that support relatively new hardware. Mandrake 9 will be released next week, so you can wait i guess. > Although I am not giving up on my modem and RHL for > the time being, I still want to keep my options open.
