Red Hat 8.0.... it's the only one I've been successfull at installing.
I was not fast enough to grab 9.0 until they threw it in the water.
I tried mandrake but it was an old version, I liked it too, but then I got Red Hat.

I could host them on my .com; might have to reconsider if they have .WMV
as extensions though.
...back ontopic again......
I do want to try SuSE 9.1 but would rather buy the full package and do not have $90 to spare on that kind of thing right now.

I want SuSE 9.1 Pro!
I see that linuxiso finally has a free version of SuSE for direct ISO download now (as opposed to the FTP install)...but it's only one cd, and it's just for the regular home version. I just got done d/ling that, but I guess I'll stay with Mandrake. =\n
