Regular readers will recall that I, like many others here, run more than one type of Linux. In particular, I run mandriva on my file server, the old Dell box under my desk. Its a good, solid machine, well engineered, even if, by todays standards, under powered.
That's got to change. A replacement is on the way. But even so, initially it will run of the same disk, same mandriva.
Mandriva has got to go. Its not being maintained aggressively. Mandriva 2012 Alpha came out in September, two months late.
Last I checked, Mageia still offered a direct upgrade path (via urpmi at least) from Mandriva. Mageia probably has most of Mandriva's community and active developers too. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
