FX Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Well I think its been that long. Im gonna give MDK another shot. Been using Fedora/Arch/Slack over the past year, with really liking Slack. Not sure why, but I just can't seem to settle on one distro and stay with it. So Im gonna try MDK again. Hoping that urpmi can keep my system up to date and maybe, just maybe I can do it with cooker so I don't have to reinstall again in another 6 months. :) If I last that long.

alexpank Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Not really a follow-up to your post, but as someone who's used Mdk, how did you find Slackware? (as in ease of use and stuff) I've been thinking of giving it a try, cos I can't find Mdk or src packages for a lot of things I've been trying to download, but everything Google turns up seems to be Slackware-related.

FX Posted June 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 (edited) I think Slack is easy to use. There are things you need to configure by hand. Not much gui config apps in slack. Since you already have/had a linux install it will be real easy to install Slack. Only takes about 25 minutes from inserting the cd to a gnome desktop, or kde if you prefer. If you need any help let me know I can give you a hand. FX Edit: I do have to give alot of thanks to cybr though for teaching and helping with what I have learned. Also the peeps in #musb have helped alot also. Edited June 2, 2004 by FX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FX Posted June 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Well first disk has/had a "ramdisk" error. Might have a bad burn. Rebooted the pc. (windows) and doing the first cd burn over again and see if that fixes it. If not, looks like Slack for good then. FX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
