Yep, it's simply amazing how many choices there are and how few of the
choices (if any) get it all right. I'm still fond of Gentoo, although
I'm running CentOS (RedRat light) for the forseeable future. I've
never been able to stomach the SuSE Yast concept - one humongous
program to maintain hundreds of config files, and which config files
did Yast change, BTW? As for Ubuntu, they've (maybe it's simply
Debian?) managed to make a simple grub.conf complex and difficult to
understand!
