new h/d!!! anyone want a distro review?
    #5939441 - 08/07/06 12:31 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

alright folks. i just got a new hard drive. i know alot of you guys have had a large hdd before, but i havent and i am going nuts on it. it is a 300GB with a 3yr warranty which i plan to test to the limit. so far i have 9 partitions not counting swaps. i have windows server 2003 and windows xp from the windows family going in. from the linux family i have gentoo, zenwalk, elive (debian based with e17 wm), (x)ubuntu, and fedora core 5. from the bsd world i am running a freebsd distro called pc-bsd. i also created a partition that is just for media. i mount it under /media/storage. it mounts in all the unix based os's that way so no matter what i (or more specifically my wife) sign in under, it is always in the same spot.

i know what ur thinking... "why would this dumbass go through the trouble to do all this?" that best answer is... i have no friggin idea... other than i have been on a rare learning binge recently where i have great concentration and soak up things relatively easily.

so, if anyone wants a distro review, post a distro you want reviewed but havent had the time to try yet and i'll install it, give it a test drive, and report back what i find.

btw, the reason i have win2k3 on there is that right now i am going through the courses to attain my MCSE. so... i need it to practice on.
