RE: Any advantage of going pure debian over storm?
Frank,
To be honest I used Red Hat for 2 years. Just to tinker I installed Suse
and Debian at different people's urging. All my systems are now debian.
Reason's why Debian Rocks
1. Debian Package Manager - RPM is starting to do this stuff in 7
2. Easy to download - psuedo-image-kit and Rsync rock!!
3. Smart Setup. The filesystem layout makes alot of sense
4. Easy to configure - Everything is in logical places and easy to find
5. Small footprint - Debian only installs what I tell it to. Not 300 megs
of redhat security holes
6. Install was really easy. Even X using the linux laptop homepage. I
don't know what everyone's complaing about.
Seems like a no brainer to me. Show me a better system and I will switch
again but I have no complaints about Debian except at the moment I am trying
to install it on a Dell server and of course the drivers are all in Red Hat
packages !!!

Hello all,
I purchased storm linux and am wondering why some of you have swiched to
pure debian.
Being new at linux, I wanted to find out what the advantage might be.
Thanks
Frank
