I've heard quite a bit about the merits of SuSE and was wondering what kind of learning curve would be required for someone moving from Mandrake. 1. What is the layout for startup files (/etc/rc.d on Mdk) 2. What is the default layout for files that are installed? Do they prefer /opt, or /usr/local, etc? 3. How are the included GUI configuration utilities? I don't mind messing with text files, but on a new system, GUI config is nice. Mdk's control panel, HardDrake, etc., are REALLY nice. 4. What is the preferred package? How good is the package compatability with Mdk/Redhat, etc? i.e., could I install Redhat RPMs and be OK? 5. Where are config files usually stored? /etc? 6. How well goes the install? Mandrake's install has gotten PRETTY smooth. With a little hand holding, I was able to install Mdk 8.0 on an P133 Compaq Armada the other day. With 16MB of RAM. :) Any other pertinant information you feel necessary. Thanks! j----- k----- A very happy Mandrake user.
