So many distros - so little time.

Suse - has it's own way of doing maintenance, so you wont learn much
about the "typical" linux approach.
lycoris - good and easy, but major departure from what most people
expect for kde look and feel.
ELX - started out good, but bogged down in building a stable release,
one of the slowest running distros.
Slackware - an old standard - well worth a try.
Gentoo - a new departure - totally from sources, lengthy install
process.
RedHat - why not, every one else is.
Libranet - to give you an exposure to debian where GNU/LINUX is writ
large.

enjoy,
