On a separate note I was considering Red Hat 7.2 this week, but someone here mentioned it had problems with ext3 etc., has anyone had any experience with 7.2; and the other question is: is SuSE 7.3 any good (don't know if I should ask this on a "SuSE" list ;-)
Thanks!

Hi Paul, There have been a number of posts about RH72 not printing, but these all seem to be with Epson Printers. There is also a big time problem with raid. The version on RH72 is linked against libraries in /usr/local/lib, which means that if /usr is not in / raid fails to start and everything goes TU. If /usr and / are the same partition then there's no problems. I believe that there is a fix now but as I don't run raid I've not looked into it. My personal experiences with 72 are pretty good - did clean install onto ext3 partitions. Had no problems yet, but not really hammered it. I've put it on a scratch machine and not had chance to break it yet. -- Gary Stainburn This email does not contain private or confidential material as it may be snooped on by interested government parties for unknown and undisclosed purposes - Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act, 2000
