      RW> TW> I have a couple of Boot flaxh drives that I have installed LUNIX for       RW> TW> testing on. I had the best luck with Puppy Linux but LINUX is not for       RW> TW> me.                     RW>Heh. I have 3 linux CDs and I wouldn't want to be stuck with any of those       RW>three as an OS...my 1st one was Red Hat v5.2 - I used it for a while, but       RW>got too frustrated with it crashing all the time, I reformatted the drive       RW>it was on and went back to W98. Then I got Lindows, v4.5 and it was better       RW>than Red Hat and even worked like Windows, but it also got to be a pain to       RW>use, so again I went back to W98. Then came Knoppix 3.2...what a mess that       RW>was and so I upgraded W98 to W2k and lived happily ever after until I       RW>finally installed XP.              I started with Red Hat also and have over the years worked through about       7 different distributions. NONE really worked for me. Always some       Glitch. My most frustrating time was getting a printer to work.       On my try with one distribution during the install it communicated with       the internet to catch upgrades but after the install I could not get it       to connect.              ---        þ SLMR 2.1a þ Typo Tom strikes agaoin        * Origin: TECHWARE BBS - Since 1995 - www.techware.dynip.com (1:102/401)    |
