Well,
I managed to snag a copy of RH 6.0 today at CompUSA.
I am into my third attempt to install it on my IBM ThinkPad, and I keep
running into this issue of the root partition being too small even though
when I fdisk it, it's set to 31 MB.
Anyway, I will continue to play and will update.
For those interested, I am formally evaluating what I consider the
the main distributions of linux (Caldera, RedHat & Suse). My evaluation
criteria are still in development, but I have assembled copies of each and
hope to do several installs during the week. If anyone wishes to participate
in documenting the evaluations, please drop me an email. I hope to wrap
everything up within 2 weeks.
Current prices:
RH 6.0 $59 CompUSA
Caldera 2.2 $29 CompUSA
Suse 6.1 $34 MicroCenter (can't find receipt, but I think it's right)
