Linux- types, flavours, behaviours

by tig2 . Updated 19 years, 3 months ago

On TR we have SMEs that understand Linux and Free BSD in ways that the uninitiated do not. And I think that those of us who want to learn a Linux have different objectives as well.

I propose this- that those of us that are admitted newbies come to the table with what we can do… but that we ask the SMEs what their preferences are and why.

So some ground rules- use “Live CD” even if it is a misnomer- in the header of your post. A Live CD will be different from a full install. But if that is your intallation goal, communicate it.

If what you think you have is more “Live” or “less”… why?

If you have a test box, and you are working this angle, let us know.

When everything works, let us know what you are using, the basic box, and what information got you to success.

We have some REALLY great SMEs on this board. What I hope to hear from them is what they think has traction and why.

We have to work together. I believe that we can.

I know that we are all trying to reach a communication point. I will be soon uploading my learnings… Or- I will soon upload what I have learned about the differentiation of American and Mid East culture.

It could be good. As long as anyone cares.

Edited to fix Apotheon’s name. I shouldn’t post in my sleep…
