[newbie] Confused about the differences between RedHat and Mandrake

2001-04-02 Thread Mark Johnson

I thought that Mandrake was an optimized version of Redhat.  Which
encompassed the removal of legacy code for pre-Pentium machines?  Is that
right?  What are the side effects effects of this optimatization? The reason
I'm asking I'm starting to get intersted in embedded linux and it looks like
embedded developers are using RedHat 6.0 for their development platform and
don't guaruntee smooth development on Mandrake and other linux enviroments.
But I don't understand what the issues are

It started out as optimized Redhat, but it's grown to be somewhat different, 
though usually compatible with Red Hat. I have no idea how the embedded side 
of it works though, so I guess you'll just have to see for yourself by trying 
it.
