Operating Systems > Linux and UNIX
OK *nix heads, what should I do?
raptor:
Mandrake 9.2 releases to the public soon, and i believe you can get torrents of it someplace!
hm_murdock:
and I heartily stand by my suggestion: Be OS
http://www.beosmax.org
suselinux:
don't get Be OS, you'll have nothing but problems, and frustration, well maybe, I don't know, I've never actually used it.....
Any way I think you should get Mandrake 9.1 or 9.2
there is a very large linux community out there, so if you run into problems all you need do is go on the internet.
Mandrake is easy, secure, and comes with alot of up to date stuff.
the nice thing about linux is the number of free/open, and free/free software out there.
just go to freshmeat, or sourceforge and see all the apps
and if your using OSX on your MAC, you're a *nix head too :D

Duo Maxwell:
I may try a few different ones. Can I boot off an external drive? If so how would I go about setting up a Firewire(ieee 1394 iLink) or USB 2.0 card under the OSs mentioned, I have an OWC Firewire400/USB2 case with a spare 60Gb in there with most of my tunes on it.
