Been trying to ring you, got a question for you, Did you get hold of the
Mandrake 9.1 iso's?

I've been trying since TUESDAY (I kid not) and still can't get them
(Overloaded servers & Mirrors)
So if you have them I wouldn't mind burning a copy, time to remember what a
REAL OS is like ;)

BTW: If you want to see a REAL *REAL* Hard mans OS, go look up the Gentoo
Linux distro, by the originator of Mandrake, more purist than Debian - you
have to be as hard as nails to use/install, get this: ALL installation
included OS install is done from SOURCE! - No binaries for you! Nope, if you
want to install something you HAVE to do it from the soource and
self-compile, the idea being that EVERYTHING you run is optimized by the
compiler for *your* set-up, sounds sweet and tempting, but I gotta get back
up to speed first with Mandrake & my 9.0 disk is corrupted :(

Catch you later,

Alan.

I was building a new machine for work (nice shuttle nforce 2 case - cracking
systems) - and noticed a Gentoo distro CD sitting by our test web server

Scarey sh1t - but if you can hack it ( not my department ) - it's the
ultimate OS for server mlarkey

Hey what did you say about Gentoo ? It was made by mandrake ?
BSD is a great system to run from scratch ie. seems to run faster than any
Linux and also more so if you do not you use the binary's

Did you suggest Gentoo is made by Mandrake programmers ?
Ya I am press here as I have secrets
