Re: What is stormix
I just installed Stormix Linux before work this
morning, took around 20-30 minutes. Nice graphical
setup tool. Monitor is a snap to set up, just pick
it from a list.
Last night I down loaded the ISO image from http://www.stormix.com,
took about an hour with DSL. Burnt a CD, booted into Stormix
Linux setup, just to see if the CD was ok. Finished prepping and
installation this morning. Rebooted into a nice desktop. Added
a background image of some pandas and left for work.
Previously, I had spent days spinning my wheels trying to
figure out how to set up straight Debian. Looked into
burning a CD, a bunch of steps plus 2x650 Mbs of disk required.
stormix is cool, but it bothers me that it is a commercial
package, and the reason I went for Debian is because its
totally non-commercial.
