What is the big deal about your own distribution?? Redhat is a running a commercial operation. I have tried all the main ones, starting with Slackware, Redhat, debian, Suse, Mandrake. Also the BSD's FreeBSD, OpenBSD etc. Also Solaris, they are all basically Unix. None of these companies have actually written all this stuff, they have all borrowed things from each other.
I have been using my own distribution built from source code for the last year, before you ask, at least I know what software is installed. The guys from the LTSP project have done an excellent job making setting up diskless workstations easy. I have been running diskless workstations as have many others for years using FreeBSD or other Unix's. The reason that I chose Linux in the end is simple, OpenOffice. My setup consists of OpenOffice for the office suite, Evolution for Email, Mozilla for the Web Browser, Gnome for the desktop, the Gimp for graphics, Gabber for IM, these applications cover everything that I use. _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
