Zenwalk 3.0 is a Slackware 10.2 based distro using a 2.6 kernel, it
uses the Xfce4.4 (beta ? rc ?) desktop and feels fast. I tried
ZenLive-2.8.1 when I first installed the new drives and decided to try
installing Zenwalk 3.0 as a diver^H^H^H test. ZenLive 3.0 was released
so if I feel the need for 'the zen way' I'll use that.

... but back to reality. Fedora Core 5 and 6 _must_ be installed, I'd
like to have Slackware 11 installed and I've used Vector several times
over it's lifetime, I like it too. Zenwalk is interesting but not enough
for me to keep installed.

Sorry, I mentioned it only because Zenwalk uses XFS (not reiserfs), my
comment on the "experience" was tongue-in-cheek. I guess I should have
indicated that somehow...
